The second meal of this week is an easy salad. You can put it together in 15 minutes and it is so yummy! It doesn’t seem like avocado and gorgonzola go together- but they do! They are so delicious together in this salad. It makes my mouth water just thinking about the creamy, tangy gorgonzola with the yummy balsamic vinaigrette. Make this salad- you won’t regret it =)
Chopped salad with avocado and gorgonzola
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 teaspoons honey 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 avacado, cut into bite sized pieces Juice of 1/4 of a lemon 1 bag romaine lettuce, chopped into small pieces 1/4 of a red onion, chopped 5 slices bacon, cooked till crisp and chopped-microwavable bacon works fine if you are in a hurry! 3 ounces crumbled gorgonzola cheese 1/3 cup crumbled tortilla chips
– Wisk together the first 6 ingredients for the vinaigrette- set aside.
– Sprinkle the lemon juice over the avocado and add to a large salad bowl.
– Add the remaining ingredients. Pour the vinaigrette over and toss.
Serve for crusty bread to soup up the delicious vinaigrette. Serves 4.




This looks delicious! ! Have you tried adding pear to this? It goes so well with the salty gorgonzola & bacon!
