Ingredients
Salad ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts see notes
- salt & pepper to taste
- 6 slices Bacon
- 2 large eggs boiled
- 6 cups romaine lettuce
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes
- 1 cup English cucumbers
- 1 avocado
- ½ cup red onion sliced thinly
- ½ cup Blue cheese crumbles
Dressing

Instructions
Cook the chicken
- If using already cooked chicken breasts, slice them. If you are using raw chicken, season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and pan fry in a little olive oil until golden brown and cooked through. Cool and slice.
Cup of Yum
Cook the bacon
- Dice the bacon and cook until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Boil the eggs
- This can be done easily in an instant pot, or on the stove top.
- For stovetop:
- Add the eggs to a large saucepan in a single layer, and cover with cold water, by about an inch.
- Turn the stove onto high and bring to a boil. When the water boils, reduce heat to a simmer and cover with a lid. Simmer for 10 minutes (set a timer).
- Remove immediately and place in a bowl filled with ice and water. Peel eggs and cool. Slice into rounds
Chop the salad veggies
- Wash, dry and chop the lettuce into small pieces, halve the cherry (or grape) tomatoes, slice the cucumbers, dice the avocado into cubes and slice the onion.
Assemble
- On a serving platter, pile on the chopped romaine.
- Arrange the chicken, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, avocado, onion and blue cheese crumbles over the top, in groups.
- Serve with small bowls of dressing – ranch/vinaigrette
Notes
- The nutrition info does not include dressing.
- This recipe is designed to serve around 4 people as a main dish. If you're planning to serve it as a side salad, you could stretch it to serve 6, depending on portion sizes. Adjust the ingredient amounts proportionally if you need to serve more people.
