Notes
- Make Ahead: You can cook the bacon and eggs up to 5 days ahead of time. Refrigerate until ready to use. You may make the salad dressing up to one week ahead of time and refrigerate. Combine salad ingredients right before serving.
- If you have extra dressing you can store it in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks. The olive oil may cause it to solidify. If this happens let the dressing sit at room temperature for a few minutes and then shake or whisk it until smooth.
