Keto Avocado Chicken Salad with Bacon and Egg

Share to save for later!

With the spring season coming our way, we are all concerned about coming back into shape after the long winter, and what is better than adding a new, fresh, healthy and quick salad into your daily meals.

Chicken itself is a quite delicious meat, and avocado, known as “the meat among fruits” is full of necessary spring vitamins. You can use boiled or roasted chicken breast. They both taste great!

Avocado and chicken salad is one of those easy and basic meals that allow you to improvise with dressing and extra ingredients. Just remember what famous chefs are saying about salads – best salads have no more than five components, anything on top of that just excludes each other’s tastes instead of complementing itself.

Just remember that the process of cooking is full of improvisation, so don’t be afraid of mixing new flavors and you will stumble on a new delicious discovery.

Keto Avocado Chicken Salad

There is no mayo in this salad with chicken and avocado recipe. We prepared a very simple salad dressing by mixing lemon juice with olive oil, salt and pepper. However, you’re welcome to add 1-2 tbsp of homemade mayonnaise to enrich the taste.

Hard boil the eggs. This should take around ten minutes. Let the eggs cool. Peel and quarter.

Fry the bacon until crispy and chop into bacon bits.

Peel and pit the avocado. Then, chop into small pieces.

In a large bowl, add the sliced avocado, hard boiled eggs, and chicken. Add the bacon bits, dill, and green onion. Set the bowl aside.
