Bacon makes everything better — especially salads!

The key to an out of this world salad is pairing a splash of sweet with a dash of salty.

sweet-savory-salad-with-bacon-and-raspberriesWith this Sweet and Savory Salad, we pump up both the sweet and the salty. Raspberries and diced fresh pears bring the succulent sweetness and bacon and feta cheese add the mouth watering savory.

Of course, we want this salad to be a complete meal, packed with healthy fats, vitamins and nutrients. So our Sweet and Savory Salad also features avocado, chicken and pumpkin seeds on a bed of baby kale leaves. And to dress our salad as beautifully as it is crafted, we whipped up a quick Red Wine Vinegar and Olive Oil with fresh basil dressing.

Yes, this salad will satisfy your appetite while indulging every one of your taste buds. Enjoy!
