Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    Wash the romaine lettuce and spinach thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with a kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water. Chop the romaine into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl. Add the spinach.

  2. 2

    Slice the Vegetables

    Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the salad bowl. Peel and slice the cucumber into thin rounds, then add to the bowl. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and slice it into cubes before adding it to the salad.

Adding Proteins and Cheese

  1. 3

    Prepare the Eggs

    Hard-boil the eggs by placing them in a pot and covering with cold water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 10-12 minutes, then cool in ice water, peel, and slice into quarters.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken and Bacon

    If using raw chicken, season and grill or bake it until fully cooked, then slice it into strips. Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then drain on paper towels and crumble it.

  3. 5

    Add Toppings

    Once the proteins are prepared, add the cooked chicken, crumbled bacon, sliced hard-boiled eggs, and blue cheese crumbles on top of the salad base.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Finish and Serve

  1. 7

    Toss the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the assembled salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately in individual bowls or plates, garnishing with additional blue cheese if desired.
