Chicken, Bacon and Avocado Salad

Now that it’s summer, a great salad is much appreciated! Now you can chop up some tomatoes and cucumbers and throw them on some lettuce or you can make. a. salad! This is delicious and hearty, which means you won’t feel hungry an hour later! Plus it’s full of protein and veggies so it is amazing for you too! I loved this salad but my only complaint was it didn’t last very long! We went through it pretty quick because not only was it so delicious, it also goes well with a variety of dressings. I’m a creamy fan (thousand island, ranch, blue cheese, etc) and my husband is an Italian dressing guy so knowing that it was equally delicious made it even better!
