  • Yield: 4-6 servings

Ingredients

✓ 4 cups mixed greens
✓ 1 cup cooked chicken, diced
✓ 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
✓ 1 avocado, diced
✓ 1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
✓ 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
✓ 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
✓ 1/4 cup red onion, diced
✓ 1/2 cup ranch dressing or your favorite dressing

Instructions

✓ Place diced cooked chicken in a bowl; drizzle with 1 tablespoon of ranch dressing.

✓ In a non-stick pan, cook bacon over medium heat until crispy; remove and drain on paper towels; chop into small pieces.

✓ Boil eggs for 10-12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath; peel and chop cooled eggs.

✓ Cut avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl; add 1 tablespoon of ranch dressing; gently mash until smooth but still chunky.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before assembling to enhance their flavors. Cook the bacon until it’s perfectly crispy without overcooking.
