Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a medium baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
Place the bacon on the baking sheet. Bake at 350 F 10 minutes or until crispy. Remove the bacon from the oven and cool while you prepare the chicken salad.
Place the chicken and guacamole in a mixing bowl. Mix together then divide the mixture into 4 meal prep containers. It's ~1 cup of the mixture each.
Break the bacon into bits and sprinkle evenly over each chicken mixture. Add the lettuce and your optional sides (as desired).

Notes

Bake your bacon in the oven to reduce mess and effort, and to make it crispier. It only takes 10 minutes to bake, and you can skip all the splattering grease!
Gently mix your chicken salad until the chicken is evenly coated with guacamole. Don’t overmix it or the chicken will break down, and the texture will change.
Keep your avocado salad from browning by placing a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the salad and gently pressing down the edges. This helps limit the exposure to air and slows oxidation.
