KETO RECIPE: BLT Breakfast Salad


Salads are not just for lunch or dinner. A hearty salad can be an amazing way to start any day, and salads are quick and easy to put together. Personally, I can eat an oozing, gooey egg on anything, and mixed with the creamy avocado and crunchy bacon, it is the perfect way to start a day!
