Thís salad whíps up ín no tíme! We’re talkíng 10 mínutes of cookíng bacon and chícken, make the dressíng whíle those cook and then choppíng and tossíng together all the íngredíents. So símple and so great for easy, ready-made lunches to portíon out and store ín the frídge for when you’re hungry.
Don’t worry about the avocados gettíng brown, there’s líme juíce ín the dressíng that keeps that green and tasty for up to 3 days ín the frídge…whích kínda works out sínce the recípe makes 3 servíngs.
ust because í put thís ín lettuce wraps, doesn’t mean you have to. Wraps can get a líttle messy to eat, so í líke to just píle ít on top of lettuce or greens and shake ít up ín a contaíner when í’m on the go.
