Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 cup arugula
- 1 cup grape tomatoes
- 0.5 whole cucumber
- 0.5 whole avocado
- 2 whole hard-boiled eggs
- 3 slices bacon
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the baby spinach and arugula, then place them in a large salad bowl.
Cut the grape tomatoes in half, dice the cucumber, and slice the avocado. Add them to the salad bowl.
Peel and slice the hard-boiled eggs into rounds and set them aside for later use.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, place the bacon on a paper towel to drain excess grease, then crumble it into pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the greens and vegetables in the salad bowl. Toss the salad gently to coat the ingredients evenly.
Top the salad with the crumbled bacon, sliced eggs, and feta cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nourishing Breakfast Salad!
