Buttered Leeks with Bacon and Avocado

One ingredient you will always find in my fridge is butter.

Since the whole less carb more fat approach became news headlines, I found myself adding an extra spoon of butter to the frying pan with just about everything I cook.

This recipe of Buttered Leeks with Bacon and Avocado is one of buttery perfection, where leeks are sauteed in browned butter, served with crispy bacon and a creamy avocado dressing.

It is a delicious carb conscious meal, and promises to keep you satisfied with delectable browned butter flavors. The creaminess of the avocado and the combination of bacon is well, a match made in low carb heaven. Enjoy!

Serve it as a side to roasts or meats, or simply enjoy it as a meal on its own.
