Don’t worry…this salad is far from vegan. The mildly bitter greens are dressed inward a shallot as well as Dijon dressing, it’s spiked amongst a generous handful of crispy lardons, or bacon inward my case, as well as topped amongst a runny egg.

By the way, unless you’re to a greater extent than or less sort of crazy person, you’re going to withdraw to a greater extent than or less crispy croutons or crostini to complete this masterpiece off.

There’s good, as well as and thus there’s top row good. Anyway, I’ve been dying to cinema this one-time favorite, as well as I actually promise you lot give it a endeavour soon. Enjoy!
