Ingredients

Scale

For the Salad:

  • 6 cups chopped romaine lettuce (or a mix of romaine and spring greens)

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, diced or sliced (grilled or rotisserie)

  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and quartered

  • 1 avocado, diced

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • ½ cup crumbled blue cheese (or feta for a milder option)

  • ¼ cup chopped green onions (optional)

For the Dressing:

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  • ½ teaspoon honey or maple syrup

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

  2. Assemble the salad:

    • Spread chopped lettuce evenly in a large serving bowl or on a platter.

    • Arrange the chicken, bacon, eggs, avocado, tomatoes, and blue cheese in rows or sections over the greens.

    • Sprinkle with green onions if using.

  3. Serve: Drizzle with the vinaigrette just before serving, or serve the dressing on the side.

Notes

  • Make it your own: swap chicken for turkey, use goat cheese or cheddar, or toss in cucumbers or radishes.

  • For meal prep, keep dressing separate until ready to eat.

  • Want it vegetarian? Skip the bacon and chicken and add chickpeas or tofu.
