Copy Cat Factory Chopped Salad (Lillie eats and tells website)

My STAPLE dish at Cheesecake Factory. It doesn’t make me feel like a foodie, because it’s pretty simple, but I can’t get enough! Fresh and crunchy and addicting. So now I make it at home!

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Serves 1

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups romaine, chopped small
• 1 slice precooked bacon, crumbled
• 1/2 oz (15 g) reduced fat blue cheese (I buy the Treasure Cave brand.)
• 1 oz (28 g) avocado, diced
• Handful of cherry tomatoes, halved (70 g)
• 1/4 cup (30 g) apples, diced
• Small handful of corn (30 g)
• 3.5 oz (100 g) grilled chicken (like this favorite we like to prep for the week) for lots of other meals in the Lillie Eats and Tells Cookbook.
• Fresh basil, chopped
• Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
• 1.5 tbs of your favorite sweet vinegar (I’m OBSESSED with this peach one. I buy mine at a local shop but you can find it here on amazon.)  Or you can whisk a little honey into a champaign or white balsamic vinegar.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Just toss it all together and enjoy!
