If you have never been to Taco Diner and enjoyed the Los Cabos salad . . . put the computer down immediately. It's like someone added a little fresh lettuce to the best guacamole you have ever tasted. And who can resist fresh bacon bits?
My first attempt to recreate this at home was a ridiculously easy success. I left out the chicken and used thick slab cut bacon as the main protein.
Los Cabos Salad
Ingredients:
1 avocado
1/2 head of iceberg lettuce
1 shallot
1/2 lime
bacon
kosher salt
(serves 2)
Cook bacon over low/medium heat.
While bacon is cooking:
Chop lettuce into 1/2 inch pieces and place in medium bowl.
Slice avocado directly on top of lettuce.
Finely chop shallot and add to lettuce/avocado.
Start 'mushing'.
Add salt and lime juice and give one final stir.
Serve with bacon crumbles on top.
I would recommend enjoying with a glass of White Bordeaux. Not because it goes together particularly well. I am just hooked on White Bordeaux.
