I am always ready to try a new salad and when BLT is in the title... well, hold me back! The BBQ sauce adds an unusual and pleasantly surprising twist that caps the salad off perfectly - ideal for a summer afternoon.

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 c torn salad greens
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1 1/2 lb chicken, cooked and cubed
10 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
2 hard boiled eggs, sliced
BBQ Dressing
1/2 c mayonnaise
3-4 Tbsp BBQ sauce, your favorite!
2 Tbsp finely chopped onion
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine the 5 ingredients listed under BBQ Dressing, mix well. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
  • 2. Place salad greens on a large platter. Sprinkle with tomatoes, chicken and bacon; garnish with eggs.
  • 3. Drizzle with Dressing or serve the dressing on the side.
  • 4. My tips...as I said in my above comment, I sometimes just serve it with Ranch or a Greek Feta Dressing. I like to use cherry tomatoes and just cut them in half. Use as many eggs as you like...and I also like to add cubed mozzarella cheese. You can also use cooked and cubed turkey instead of chicken!
