Instructions

Bring on the Bacon
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

b) Lay the bacon in a single layer onto a lined baking tray and bake on the middle shelf of your oven until golden brown and crispy, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

c) Meanwhile, tear the ciabatta into roughly 2cm chunks. Pop the ciabatta chunks into a large bowl. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat well.

Prep the Salad
2

a) When the bacon has 10 mins remaining in the oven, pop the croutons on the middle shelf of the oven until golden, 8-10 mins. Once cooked, remove both the bacon and croutons from the oven and set aside to cool, 5-10 mins.

b) While everything roasts, halve the baby plum tomatoes.

c) Halve the avocado and remove the stone. Use a tablespoon to scoop the flesh out onto a board, face-down. Slice into 0.5cm thick slices.

d) Halve the iceberg lettuce and thinly slice.

Assemble and Serve
3

a) Once cooled, chop the bacon rashers into large, bite-sized chunks.

b) In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, tomatoes, ranch dressing, croutons and three quarters of the cheese. Season with pepper, then toss to coat well.

c) Divide the dressed salad between 2 serving bowls. Arrange the avocado slices and bacon chunks on top.

d) Sprinkle over the remaining cheese to finish.

Enjoy!
