AVOCADO, EGG AND BACON SALAD

This is good for breakfast, or a snack anytime, as it satiates the appetite perfectly, making sure all cravings are gone!  You can serve this on its own, on a bed of lettuce or on low-carb crackers.  I normally eat it by itself. If you are only feeding two people or yourself, you can halve this recipe, although it will last 2 or 3 days in the fridge.  I actually like my egg salads with extra crunch, so I added the diced, orange bell pepper and then I was even happier.  You can definitely add some hot sauce to this salad for a little extra pep, if desired

12 hard-boiled eggs, chilled, peeled and diced
4 California avocados, peeled, pitted, diced
5 slices bacon, cooked crispy, and diced
