Thirty Pin Cushions

 

One of Heather’s favorite recipes is in a children’s cookbook she’s had nearly twenty years. It’s a sandwich with the unappealing name of “BLAT:” crumbly bacon, crisp lettuce, ripe avocado and juicy tomato, with mayo on toast. Whenever we have all six ingredients, she’s sure to ask for BLAT for lunch. I can’t wait to surprise her with this:

 

BLAT Salad

 

2 cups leaf lettuce

1/2 cup thick bacon cooked, and crumbled

1 tomato, sliced

1 1/2 ripe avocados, divided

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayo

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoons each garlic and onion powder

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup milk

 

Place first 3 ingredients plus half an avocado, sliced, in large bowl. Add remaining ingredients to blender; process until smooth. Toss salad with a few tablespoons avocado/ranch dressing. Refrigerate remaining dressing in covered container.
