2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 avocado, diced

1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup red onion, finely diced

Instructions

Begin by preparing the ingredients: chop the Romaine lettuce and dice the cooked chicken and avocado. Crumble the bacon and chop the hard-boiled eggs.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to create the dressing. Set aside.

In a large platter or salad bowl, lay a generous base of chopped Romaine lettuce.

Arrange the diced chicken, crumbled bacon, chopped eggs, cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, blue cheese, and red onion in neat rows over the lettuce, creating a colorful display.

Drizzle the prepared dressing evenly over the salad.

Toss gently before serving, or serve with the dressing on the side for individual portions.
