Ingredients - serves 2
(I always serve the kids the deconstructed version so take that onto consideration with topping qtys.)
2 large hearts of romaine - washed and dried
1 package of bacon - I only use 2 slices per salad, but the kids always eat the rest ;)
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes
2 hard boiled eggs, peeled, chopped
6-8 oz. grilled chicken (I really like the boneless/skinless thighs for this)
a handful of brussels sprouts, washed and shredded in the food processor (also optional, but they add some great texture and good health)
1 roasted beet - optional - I love them so I always add 1 to my salad, but my hubs is a no go!
slivered almonds - a nice addition
Your favorite dressing - I rotate between balsamic and ranch on this one. I do cut the ranch with water substantially though. I usually just add water to the jar each time I use some, a tip from my Mother-in-law!
Chop, chop, chop all that lettuce up and mix it well with the sprouts. In a large bowl with a lid, toss in all the greens and tomatoes, add dressing and shake it up well. This helps you to use a lot less dressing! Pour greens out onto 2 plates and evenly divide all the remaining toppings! Serve!
What you need. |
Toss greens with dressing, all all other chopped ingredients to the top and serve! |
