This salad from EatingWell Magazine is fairly close to the original from a restaurant in Hollywood, CA, however the blue cheese is optional. Toss your greens with the dressing, then again, drizzle over your completed salad. Serve with some hot, crispy bread and a nice glass of wine to serve as a meal.

Tips & variations

  • To poach chicken breast: Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a medium skillet or saucepan and add lightly salted water to cover; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes.

  • To hard-boil eggs: Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook at the barest simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, pour out hot water and run a constant stream of cold water over the eggs until completely cooled.
