Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds Boston, Bibb, green or red leaf lettuce, or a mixture, washed, trimmed, and dried
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup dressing of your choice, such as shallot or herb vinaigrette, ranch, or blue cheese
4 ounces imported Swiss cheese, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces
4 ounces baked ham, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces
4 ounces smoked turkey, chicken or duck breast, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces

1 ripe Hass avocado, diced
16 vine-ripened cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

  • Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and put into a large mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss with 1/2 cup of the dressing. Divide the lettuce among 4 large individual serving bowls. Arrange the cheese, meats, eggs, and avocado, like the spokes of a wheel, on top of each salad. Scatter the tomatoes, cucumbers, and croutons on top. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve and pass the remaining dressing at the table.

TURKEY CHEF SALAD



Turkey Chef Salad image

This is a recipe I received from my Healthy Foods daily email subscription. It's not your typical Chef Salad but it has so many great ingredients you don't even miss the fat. Other than the Dressing I didn't stay true to the measurements, I just used what I thought was appropriate for my tastes and it came out great. I don't think you can really go wrong. The fresh basil gives it great flavor.

TURKEY-SALAD SANDWICH



Turkey-Salad Sandwich image

Here's a bright, fresh lunch that's ideal if, perhaps, you've overindulged (and delicious even if you haven't). A bit of lemony mayonnaise binds together roast turkey, apples, celery, and raisins. You can also serve the mixture over greens instead of bread.
