Directions: |
Directions:Place all salad ingredients, except the bacon, in a large bowl. Stir in dressing, in small amounts until the salad is lightly dressed, being careful not to use too much of the salad dressing.
For the dressing mix and blend completely in a blender or food processer. This tends to overflow in the food processer---sloppy! Toss this salad with about 3/4 cup of dressing. Don't over dress the salad.
For presentation. Place some bacon crumbles on the salad plate. Use a large circular ring (sold for cutting biscuits) and pack the dressed salad into the ring. Slowly remove the ring and place a small sprig of watercress on the top! The biscuit ring is a great gadget for presentation. can be used for lots of plating...rice, macaroni & Cheese, whatever. Looks fancy and remember you eat with your eyes too! If you take the time to make a nice dinner, plate it! |

Notes: This salad is a "must have" from Hall's Chophouse, and has become a must have for special occasions at our house. It's now a Christmas eve tradition, for the first course of our family Christmas eve menu. The dressing is really great and will keep for a few weeks in the refrigerator.
