Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 slices (4 ounces) bacon
3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large head romaine lettuce, shredded
8 ounces (2 cups) roasted turkey breast, cut into 3/4-inch dice
1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
3 ounces (3/4 cup) blue cheese, crumbled
2 hard-cooked eggs, cut into wedges
2 plum tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice

Steps:

In a medium skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. The bacon may also be cooked in a 425-degree oven on a rack over a rimmed baking sheet until crisp, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Let cool, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces, and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. While continuing to whisk, drizzle in olive oil until thickened. Add lettuce, and toss to coat. Place on a large serving platter. Arrange remaining ingredients on lettuce as desired, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Categories main-dish

Time 17m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices bacon, cut crosswise into thin strips
2 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 large eggs
8 cups mesclun salad greens (about 7 ounces)
4 to 8 slices crusty bread, toasted if desired

Steps:

Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel. Pull the skillet from the heat (leave drippings in the skillet) and stir in 1 12 tablespoons cider vinegar, scraping up any browned bits clinging to the skillet. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and whisk in mustard, salt and pepper to taste, and olive oil.
Fill a nonstick skillet with about 2 inches of water and bring it to the barest simmer over medium heat; add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar. Crack the eggs, slipping them gently into the water, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes.
While the eggs poach, toss the greens with the vinaigrette and bits of bacon. Divide the salad among 4 plates or shallow bowls. Using a slotted spoon, gently scoop the eggs from the water, blot dry with a paper towel, and place 2 of them on top of each salad. Add bread to each plate and serve.
