Today's lunch is a classic example of turning a sandwich idea into a low carb salad. The BLT which I would have (back in my high carb days) made with a slice of bacon, two slices of tomato and a lonely piece of lettuce between two thick pieces of bread, has now become the BLT Salad!
I used two heaped cups of greens (baby spinach and baby kale leaves), a whole tomato (sliced) and two slices of bacon, along with mushrooms, cheese and mayo for extra flavour. Man was it tasty!
The bacon is from our own home reared pigs so is a cost effective protein option. The vege component was the most expensive part of the meal, but overall it was not too bad at around $3 for a delicious meal.
