Serving Size: 4

Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 8 Strips bacon, drained
• 2 Heads butterhead lettuce, torn
• 4 Ears sweet corn, sliced
• 1 Bunch green onions, minced
• 1 Whole red bell pepper, minced
• 2 Whole avocados, peeled
• 0.67 Cups red wine vinegar salad dressing
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) blue cheese salad dressing
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) honey

Steps

1. In a large, deep skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it is evenly browned and crispy. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease, then crumble it into small pieces. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the torn butterhead lettuce, sweet corn kernels, minced green onions, and minced red bell pepper. Gently fold in the peeled avocados, being careful not to mash them.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey until well combined and smooth.
4. Pour the honey vinaigrette over the salad mixture and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
5. Just before serving, sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the top of the salad for a delightful crunch.
