Ingredients: 

• 3 eggs, hard-cooked
• 8 slices bacon
• 1 head romaine lettuce, leaves separated and torn into bite-sized pieces
• 4 cups chopped cooked turkey or chicken meat
• 2 avocados, pitted, peeled, and cubed
• 2 tomatoes, chopped
• 4 oz Roquefort or other blue cheese, crumbled, plus 1 oz
• 2 cups chopped stemmed watercress
• 2 Tbsp minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 2 Tbsp minced fresh chives
• 1⁄4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1⁄2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1⁄3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:

1. Cut the hard-cooked eggs into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
   
2. In a frying pan, fry the bacon over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. When cool, crumble and set aside.
    
3. On a platter or individual plates, arrange the romaine, eggs, turkey, avocados, tomatoes, and the 4 oz crumbled cheese. Top with the bacon and watercress. Mix together the parsley and chives and sprinkle over the salad.
    
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, 1 ⁄4 tsp salt, and 1⁄2 tsp pepper. Using a fork, mash in the 1 oz cheese. Add the oil in a thin stream, whisking until smooth.
    
5. Pour some of the dressing over the salad and serve, passing the remaining dressing at the table.

Note: Serves 4-6
