Categories     Salad     Leafy Green     Appetizer     No-Cook     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy

Yield 6 -8 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium head iceberg lettuce, washed and dried
1 medium head romaine lettuce, washed and dried
10 to 12 frozen or canned (in brine) artichoke hearts (not marinated; about 12 ounces drained)
1 cup hearts of palm (about 12 ounces drained)
1 avocado
6 ounces blue cheese, such as Saga, Maytag, or gorgonzola, crumbled (1 cup)
3/4 cup bacon bits, or 12 to 14 crumbled, crisp-cooked bacon strips
3?4 cup chopped hard-cooked eggs (2 large eggs; see Note)
3/4 cup finely minced red onion
3/4 cup seeded, chopped plum tomato
3/4 cup Dijon Vinaigrette (page 227)

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the iceberg and romaine lettuces into 1?2-inch squares. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Cut the artichoke hearts into eighths and the hearts of palm into 1?4-inch-long pieces and add to the lettuce. 2. Peel the avocado and remove the pit. Cut the avocado into 1?2-inch cubes and add to the lettuce. 3. Crumble the blue cheese over the salad. Sprinkle the bacon bits, chopped egg, onion, and tomato over the salad. Add the vinaigrette, toss well, and serve. Note: To hard-cook eggs, put them in a saucepan with cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, remove from the heat, and set aside for 15 minutes, during which time the eggs will harden. This is a better method than cooking the eggs in boiling water. There is less chance of the eggs cracking.

I'm allergic to blue cheese, so I used goat cheese instead. It was still really good!

This salad is a bit too expensive for my taste. I think I'll stick to making my own at home.

I'm not a big fan of wheat berries, so I used quinoa instead. It was still really good.

I'm not a fan of blue cheese, so I used feta cheese instead. It was still really good!

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning.

I made this salad exactly as the recipe said, and it turned out great! The only thing I would change next time is to add a little more salt and pepper to the dressing.

This chopped salad is a real crowd-pleaser! I've made it for potlucks, picnics, and even just a quick lunch at home, and it's always a hit. The combination of flavors and textures is perfect, and the dressing is light and tangy without being overpowe
