Ingredients

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 2 heads butterhead lettuce
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 4 ears sweet corn, cut off the cob
  • 2 avocados - peeled, seeded and cubed
  • 2/3 cup red wine and vinegar salad dressing
  • 3 tablespoons blue cheese salad dressing
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Directions

  1. Saute bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, red bell pepper, green onions and corn, and mix together. Carefully stir in the cubed avocado.
