Directions

Step 1

Wash and thoroughly dry the Romaine lettuce and arugula. Chop the Romaine into bite-sized pieces and combine it with the arugula in a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and scatter them over the greens.

Slice the hard-boiled eggs and arrange them on top of the salad alongside the crumbled bacon.

Step 5

Dice the avocado and place it on top, along with the crumbled blue cheese and chopped chives.

Step 6

In a small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.

Step 7

Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad just before serving, or serve it on the side for guests to add as desired.
