Ingredients

•½ ripe avocado, scooped out of its skin

•4 strips bacon

•2 carrots, peeled and chopped into strips

•2 oz. aged cheddar, diced (I recommend Kerrygold's Aged Cheddar or Dubliner)

•2 hard boiled eggs**

•4 oz. grape tomatoes

•2 green onions, chopped

•4 mini sweet bell peppers (or ½ a large red pepper)

•1 head romaine lettuce

•3 Tablespoons dressing (We used Caesar, I recommend something creamy)

•Handful sugar snap peas

Cooking Instructions

01
In a skillet over medium heat, fry bacon until crispy.
02
Let bacon strips drain on a paper towel lined plate, then crumble.Grab a big giant cutting board and put the grape tomatoes, carrots, bell peppers, snap peas, avocado, and eggs (or whatever lovely assortment of veggies you prefer) on the board.
03
Place the romaine lettuce leaves on top. Using a large chef knife, chop through all the ingredients, staying in parallel lines in one direction. Rotate your cutting board 90 degrees then chop again in parallel lines in the same direction as before. Repeat until all the ingredients are in small pieces.
04
Place chopped mixture in a large bowl along with aged cheddar cubes, green onions, and crumbled bacon.
05
Add dressing of your choice and toss to combine.
06
Serve immediately with some crusty bread.***My favorite way to cook hard boiled eggs is to put them in a pot, cover them with cold water (1 to 2 inches above the surface of the eggs), bring to a boil for 1 minute, then remove the pot from heat, cover, and allow to cook for 10-12 minutes. I find this method is easy, dependable, and doesn’t result in the green alien ring that comes from overcooking. Happy chopping!

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
