Completely Keto BLT Salad
As the warm summer breeze swept through the backyard, friends gathered for a leisurely afternoon barbecue. Among the array of delicious dishes laid out on the table, one stood out—a vibrant bowl of Completely Keto BLT Salad.
Inspired by the classic flavors of a BLT sandwich, this salad was a refreshing twist on a beloved favorite. Crisp romaine lettuce formed the base, providing a satisfying crunch with every bite. Nestled among the greens were generous portions of uncured, sugar-free bacon, cooked to perfection and crumbled into savory morsels.
Slices of ripe cherry tomatoes added bursts of juicy sweetness, while hard-boiled eggs offered creamy texture and protein. Thinly sliced red onions lent a touch of sharpness, balancing the richness of the other ingredients, while creamy avocado slices provided a luxurious finish.
But what truly elevated this salad was the homemade dressing—a harmonious blend of olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. With each drizzle of dressing, the flavors melded together, creating a symphony of taste sensations that danced across the palate.
As friends gathered around the table, laughter and conversation filled the air, accompanied by the satisfying sound of forks clinking against plates. With each bite of the Completely Keto BLT Salad, they savored not only the delicious flavors but also the joy of coming together to share good food and great company on a sunny afternoon.
