BLT Breakfast

Crisp bacon combines with the bright flavor of spinach and tomatoes in this unique Paleo breakfast recipe.

The addition of eggs, avocado and almonds tops up the protein and healthy fat content of this healthy BLT breakfast. You can replace the bacon with salami if you like (or to save some time). If you’re tight on time in the morning, you can also cook the bacon, reserve the drippings, and chop the vegetables the night before.
