I'm not a big fan of tomatoes, but I love this salad. The bacon and avocado really balance out the tartness of the tomatoes.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of sweet tomatoes, salty bacon, and creamy avocado was divine, and the bibb lettuce cups were the perfect vessel for holding all the ingredients. I'll definitely be making this again.
