A salad on a Saturday.
But it has fried avocado.
And bacon.
And honey lime vinaigrette.
And a spicy ranch ranch drizzle!
I could get used to this.

ummm…good thing I’m working on my menu for next week right now because I NEED this salad in my life. Fried avocado? Bacon? Ranch? dude sign me up.
Um… yum. This looks awesome.
Crispy avocado? Now that is something I’ve never tried! I bet the texture is totally amazing – crispy outside, creamy inside. You’re a clever one!
ok, this is everything I want and more on this rainy gross Saturday Jess. :) FRIED AVOCADO! Omg my tastebuds are dancing! :)
So 3 weeks ago I stumbled upon your website and I truly fell in love!!! I challenged myself and said going forward I am going to make everything you make, no matter what. I started with Asiago shrimp soup and I’m up to blood orange Sangria. I was out of town last week, so I got behind. A few of my co-workers are now hooked on your site too. I’ll get messages from them saying make sure you bring those peppermint patties. ( BTW those were the best things EVER! Made them 2x already. But OMG I can not wait to make this salad!!! Thanks for all the inspiration and motivation!
You have just taken avocado to a whole new level! Crispy! Amazing! Man, this salad looks awesome. We need to try this one soon!
If this tastes as good as it LOOKS I am really excited. This would be a great meal to entertain with too. Thanks Jessica!
Have a great weekend. :)
Uhm yes this brings BLT to another realm ! Im having this.

Gah! I discovered fried avocado last year and my life has been better for it :) http://www.fortheyum.com/2012/05/avocado-fries.html Soooo good with sriracha or a bit of lime!!! I’ve never thought about on a salad though… This might quell my guilt about the frying!
This looks too good to be true.
That salad has some SERIOUS sex appeal.
Dang, Jessica…you’ve done it again.
I have never seen a salad that I wanted more!!
This is truly my kind of salad! I can’t even imagine how delicious it must be! I’m amazed that your recipes ALWAYS look great. No hit or miss here! Thanks for sharing :)
So I’m sort of having a problem with how you keep making me want avocado, when I’m out of them. Stop, would you? But please don’t.
honey lime vinaigrette + spicy ranch drizzle = I want that on everything.
love the cheery yellow napkin in the photo. Such spring-like happy colors!
Say whaaaaaat???! Fried avocado? I think I love you. :)
A BLT in salad form? SIgn me up!! :)
Ohhhhhh my kind of salad!!! And I just so happen to have all the ingredients on hand and was trying to think of what to make for dinner. So, now I know – thank you!!
Normally I am not a craver of salads, but this is an exception.
in total awe of you!!!
Fried avocado? Mind BLOWN!
OMG, the crispy avocado totally got me! WANT!
Whoa! These are probably as good as fried Twinkies!
Holey cow is there no stopping you with the avocados???
What’s next ,candied avocado? Ha,ha,ha,ha!
Keep them coming, i love what you do!
This looks SO AMAZING!!!! I LOVE avocado and can’t wait to try this. Seriously!
I am on a complete avocado kick. I cannot get enough of them. Now if only the ones I just bought would ripen quicker. I will be making this salad soon.
It’s like you peered into my soul. All my favorites in one bowl. I can’t wait to make this!!!!!!!!!!!!
do you ever take a bad picture? you’re awesome jessica!
I thought there wasn’t anything better than avocado used in guacamole. Evidently I was wrong. Wow! This looks amazing.
your fried an avocado? you are my hero. My salads will never be the same again!
There you go again with those beautiful messes. Salty, peppery avocado crummies ALL OVER THE PLACE and I don’t even want to punch anyone in the face.
Are you my therapist?
At first glance I thought that was fried chicken. Fried avocado? That’s genius! I’m off to print the recipe!
We fry it up here in the South, but you’ve managed to make this look, fresh, beautiful and healthy. Lovely idea. Great pics.
now THAT’s a salad ;)
bookmarking to make soon!!!

I was hoping for some follow-up feedback from anyone who tried the recipe…how was it? Also wondering if anyone can advise on how far in advance these avocados can be fried before composing the salad (how long till they get soggy) ? This looks AMAZING, can’t wait to try it!
It was AMAZING! Best salad I’ve ever had. Frying the avocado was also easier than I anticipated. We fried the avocados and put them on the salad immediately, but we had some excess fried avocado (we used an extra avocado) we snacked on after the fact. They were perfectly fine/crisp 20-30 minutes later but weren’t as warm. I would suggest frying the same day to get that crisp texture. It is sublime.
HOW THE EFF DID I NOT SEE THIS UNTIL TODAY?!
*i die*
Ok, that looks CRAZY good!
This is my first time reading your blog and I LOVE LOVE it!!! I am so excited to try frying one of my all time favorites, avocado! Who would have thought?!! Thanks so much!!!
Oh jeez. This look so good!
I just made this salad, and it was sublime. Absolutely AMAZING. Thank goodness I bought 2 avocados over the weekend, because I definitely need to have this again soon! By the way, this is the first recipe of yours that I have tried, and I’m excited to try more. Thanks for the best salad recipe I have ever tried :)
