Chef's Salad

A Classic Chef's Salad filled with crisp greens, vegetables, hard boiled eggs, ham, and cheese. Perfect salad for lunch or dinner!
Course: Salad
Cuisine: American
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 2 romaine hearts chopped
  • 2-3 plum tomatoes cut into wedges
  • 1 sm. English cucumber thinly sliced
  • 2-3 lg. hard-boiled eggs cut into wedges
  • 1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 lb. cooked ham diced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • bleu cheese dressing for serving

Instructions

  • Chop or tear the lettuce into bite size pieces. Place lettuce on a large serving platter or into 4 individual bowls.
  • Arrange the tomatoes, cucumbers, eggs, cheese, and ham, like the spokes of a wheel, on top of the lettuce.
  • Serve the salad, passing the dressing at the table.
  • Cook's Note: Growing up, this salad was always served with Thousand Island dressing. As an adult, I prefer to dress it with Bleu Cheese. My kids love it with Ranch! Long story short, dress it however you like!
