Salad Lyonnaise
Make a meal of salad with bacon, eggs and potatoes.
The French call this a salad; we call it dinner. Granted, we took some liberties with the traditional salad, adding potatoes to make it heartier. Use a sturdy lettuce like frisée or romaine.
Ingredients (11)
- 3 bacon slices
- 2 russet potatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes
- 2 leeks (white part only), sliced

- 4 cup frisée or curly endive
