Ingredients

4 cups mixed greens (romaine, spinach, arugula)

1 cup cooked chicken breast, diced

4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped

1 avocado, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

½ cup blue cheese, crumbled

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced

½ cup ranch dressing (or your favorite vinaigrette)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens as the base.

Next, neatly arrange the diced chicken breast, crumbled bacon, and chopped hard-boiled eggs in rows on top of the greens.

Add the diced avocado and halved cherry tomatoes in another row beside the other ingredients.

Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese and sliced red onion evenly over the salad.

Drizzle the ranch dressing (or vinaigrette) over the salad, or serve it on the side for individual preference.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

For a final touch, gently toss the salad just before serving if desired, or leave it assembled for a beautiful presentation.
