A delicious and satisfying BLT salad recipe that's Paleo diet-friendly served with a creamy mayo vinaigrette salad dressing.
I just returned from an amazing trip to Chicago with the Beef It's What's For Dinner group. You'll be hearing more about that soon in an upcoming blog post. I participated in a food challenge at The Chopping Block and the dressing recipe that my teammates and I served with our dish was the inspiration for my lunch today. It was SO good! We created this vinaigrette to go with our Cobb Sirloin Kebabs. Check out that recipe and let me know what you think. We thought it was a winner! It helps that I had a pretty awesome cooking team. 😉
This creamy mayo vinaigrette is a healthier alternative to ranch dressing. My husband loved it so much, that he insisted that I make another batch. I love BLT's and this is all of that delicious goodness sans bread, so it's Paleo-friendly (when made with my Paleo mayo recipe).
