DiscussionsPillsbury Recipe Magazine & Cookbooks

about twenty years ago I had the best salad recipe. I believe it was in a soft cover pillsbury bake off book.  Or summer edition.It was bacon, lettuce, tomato salad with avacado dressing.  I can't find it anywhere. Any ideas on an avacado dressing?  or that recipe.  Thanks. Shari
