Update: This article was originally published in August 2018. I made updates to include more information about making a blt chopped salad with corn at home. 
With the New Year right around the corner (how’d that happen so fast"!"), I figured it was as good a time as any to share some healthier swaps to help transition away from the decadence of the holiday season.  About this recipe for b l t salad 
This BLT salad with avocado and ranch is filled with big flavors, lots of textures, and plenty of goodies to keep you full until your next meal. What I’m trying to say is, if this is diet food, I’ll happily jump on the bandwagon.
This deconstructed and chopped BLT features fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, salty bacon, rich avocado, chargrilled corn, and pungent red onions for an entrée salad that is tough to beat. Finished with a generous drizzle of my slightly spicy, brightly herbaceous, super creamy avocado jalapeño ranch dressing, this summery salad is far from boring or bland!
