Low Carb Bacon Almond Avocado Salad. Another terrific salad, this time from my friend Carole. She has actually given me several recipes over the months as she and her husband eat a lot of salad, and I mean a lot of salad. They are confessed saladholics. How that for a word? It shows up as misspelled and I’m still using it. Anyway, as I pretty much do, I changed it to my own suiting, it’s paleo, and I hope you like this low carb bacon almond avocado salad. The slivered almonds were toasted in duck fat because…I just happened to have some so, there are two fats instead of just the bacon fat.
