Make the dressing: Heat the bacon fat in a skillet over medium heat. When it's sizzling, add the shallots and cook until softened and fragrant about 5 minutes.

Toss the avocado with a splash of lemon juice to keep it from browning.
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, avocado, tomatoes and cheese crumbles. Toss with the salad dressing so everything is well coated. Top with more bacon and parsley for serving.
