1
For the croutons:
2
Preheat oven to 415 F.
3
Combine cheeses, garlic powder and salt and pepper in a bowl. Roll into tablespoon-size balls and set on a plate. I got 12 balls from this amount of cheese. Put the egg white into a shallow bowl. Put the breadcrumbs in another shallow bowl.
4
First roll the cheese balls in egg white, then in panko. Make sure all of the cheese is covered with panko. Place the balls on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until panko is golden brown on the outside.
5
For the dressing:
6
Add avocado, milk, garlic powder, salt and pepper into a blender. Puree until smooth. You may need to adjust milk amounts to achieve desired consistency. Taste and re-season if needed.
7
For the salad:
8
Combine hot sauce and chicken in a small bowl. Set aside. Combine lettuce, peppers and bacon in a large bowl. Add salad into 4 bowls. Top with chicken, 3 croutons and drizzle with avocado dressing. Garnish with green onions.
