BLT Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocados
July 29, 2019
The BLT (bacon, lettuce, tomato) sandwich may be the most serendipitous sandwich ever created. Refreshing romaine provides a sturdy bed to sop up the summer sweet juices dripping from thick slices of vine-ripened ruby tomato and salty snaps of smoked pork gilded with a thick, creamy smear of mayo.
While we love the occasional slice of buttered homemade sourdough bread or finely crafted gluten-free bread as the bookends to a sandwich, we think a BLT is strong enough to stand alone, breadless. Actually, make that a BLTA because, well, Primal Kitchen did originate in California. We consume avocado like it’s a condiment, similar to how some smother hot sauce on nearly everything that’s edible. This version of a BTLA uses leftover diced chicken as a filling for halved avocados, but the rest sticks pretty true to the classic.

A true American classic, the BLT is the highlight of many restaurant lunch menus. We created a bread-free version as a BLT topped with chicken salad inside avocado boats. You get all of the familiar flavor of a BLTA with creamy mayo, minus the extra carbs!
Ingredients
- 2 avocados, halved and pitted
- 2 cups diced, cooked chicken (10 ounces)
-
3/4 cup Primal Kitchen Mayo with Avocado Oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
- 1 romaine heart, thinly sliced
- 6 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
- 6 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together Primal Kitchen Mayo, lemon juice and chives.
Pour ½ cup of the dressing over the chicken and mix well to evenly coat the chicken. Add salt to taste.
Spread the sliced romaine and halved tomatoes out on a platter. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the lettuce and tomatoes.
Set the avocado halves on top. Spoon chicken salad into each avocado half.
Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the top of the chicken, avocado, lettuce and tomatoes.
