One of my favorite quick lunch meals is a turkey wrap using coconut wraps, with Primal Kitchen Mayo, lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Lately I’ve been loving adding a slice or two of crispy bacon into my lunch wrap, and that got me thinking about how much I love bacon, lettuce, and tomato together.

I started thinking about some different summer recipes I wanted to make with these flavors, and the first one that popped into my mind was a BLT Salad. I thought it would be tasty with my homemade Garden Ranch Dressing, which I’ve been been making using our new Garden Ranch seasoning packet!

This salad had crunch from the bacon, brightness from the lettuce, but just a hit of rich and creamy from the dressing. Full of flavor, and so easy to throw together, this salad is perfect for your summer cookouts, or any weeknight meal!
