BLT salad, lemon bars

If I haven't actually made this salad every day for the last two weeks, we've at least TALKED about it every single day for the last two weeks. And I definitely have made it at least 6 or 7 times. Maybe more. It is amazing.

Basic ingredients:
Lettuce (any kind)
Tomatoes
Bacon (cook it in the oven on foil so there is no mess.)
Cheese (I use feta for mine and Annie's and cheddar for Jared's)
Avocado

What else I add:
Cabbage
Peppers
Carrots
Spinach
etc...

Dressing Recipe:
Fresh lime juice (I recommend getting some kind of juicer, you will want this salad every day.)
About a half teaspoon of olive oil to every lime (some people might like more oil)
dash of salt

That's it. Easy, delicious, seriously super fresh because of the lime juice. When you mix it all on your plate and the avocado spreads on everything and the lime is so fresh it is just the perfect texture and amazing.

Today I tried a new recipe for lemon bars. Following the same criteria I always require, this recipe is simple, quick, and has very few ingredients. Go to this website for the recipe.

Grandma Foote says she wants these lemon bars instead of a cake next year on her birthday!
