Ingredients

  • 3-4 romaine hearts
  • 4 tbs extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces Bacon about 6-8 slices, chopped and browned
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts chopped rotisserie chicken works well
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs
  • 1 large avocado sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 small red onion chopped
  • ½ cup blue cheese crumbled or feta cheese
  • dressing of choice 

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep the romaine hearts: Pull off any old leaves. Chop off the top 1 or 2 inches of the lettuce head, and shave off the browned part of the root end (be sure to leave the root end intact so that the lettuce head stays together.)
  2. Sautee chopped bacon in a skillet until browned and crisp (about 5 minutes), then transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to cool. Cook hard-boiled eggs then peel and quarter.
  3. Prepare your grill: Turn your gas grill to high or get your charcoal coal grill very hot. If you are grilling the chicken, prepare and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Combine olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle or brush over the romaine hearts to coat.
  5. Grill the romaine hearts until lightly browned on all sides, turning every minute or two until done.
  6. Arrange remaining salad ingredients (chicken, eggs, avocado, tomatoes, onion, blue cheese, and bacon) on the side or over the grilled romaine hearts. 
  7. Top with your favorite salad dressing.
