Bacon & Berries Superfood Salad

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Best You Available at Publix. The opinions and text are mine.

Our Bacon & Berries Superfood Salad offers the perfect blend of good-for-you nutrients and tasty, tasty goodness.  Loaded with superfoods and a few favorite naughty ingredients (hello bacon!), this is a salad that makes sticking to resolutions easy!

You know what happens to resolutions?  They tend to resolve themselves within the month of January.  It’s all gung-ho for the first few weeks.  Then, as good intentions slide, so does the commitment to workout, eat healthy, and declutter.

But with a resolution like finding joy, which is what I’ve adopted as my mantra for 2018… well, I’m planning on letting that one stick around for a while.

As it happens, I do find joy in my almost-daily runs.  And, when it happens, I find joy in seeing the scale go down.  But beating myself up over every pound?  Or cutting out my favorite foods?  Well, how much fun is that?  Instead, this is my year for moderation.  Balancing the healthy and not healthy, the work with the fun, and the saint with the devil. 😉

Hence my inspiration for this Berry and Bacon Superfood Salad.   All of the good-for-me stuff, and a little bit of the “bad.”   With just a sprinkling of bacon and feta, this superfood salad becomes a meal that’s crave-worthy.

Add the bacon to a hot skillet and cook until crispy.  I like mine “extra crispy,” but to each their own.  Drain the bacon on paper towels.  Reserve the bacon fat for another use.

Next slice up all of the ingredients.  I like a “chopped” style salad, with a mix of romaine for crunch and healthy greens including spinach and arugula.  I also prepped English cucumber, blueberries, raspberries, lemon wedges and some crumbled feta.

When I have a salad-entree, I like to really make it feel like a meal, so I load up on the greens.  Then it gets topped with all of my veggies, fruits, bacon and cheese.

Because there is so much great flavor in all of the fresh ingredients used in this salad, I forgo the dressing.  Instead, a little drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil does the trick!  And, since you’re eating SALAD, why not enjoy it with a nice glass of vino?

Cheers to your best you and great savings with Publix!)

Oh, and just for fun… here’s a little behind-the-scenes sneak-peek at our photoshoot.  I had a 40 lb. obstacle to work around for this one!  He wasn’t moving.
