Ingredients

  • small handful of curly endive substitute spring mix
  • 1 1/2 oz olive oil, red wine vinegar vinaigrette
  • 1 strip thick cut bacon
  • 4 grape tomatoes, sliced into 4ths
  • 1/2 oz feta or gruyere cheese
  • 1 poached egg
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Chop the bacon strip into pieces and brown in a small skillet. Place the cooked bacon on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  • Poach the egg in a skillet or saucepan with about 1 1/2" of water brought to a simmer on the stove. Crack the egg into a small bowl and carefully lower it into the water. Cook for 3 to 3 1/2 minutes for a runny yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and use a paper towel to dry off some of the water.
  • Assemble the lettuce on a plate or shallow bowl, add the bacon, tomatoes, and cheese. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and place the poached egg on top. Salt and pepper as desired.
