Crunchy, cheesy croutons meet creamy French onion soup dressing in this irresistible salad!
Ingredients:
  • 2 thick slices (about 200g) sourdough bread, cut into 2.5cm pieces
  • 27.30 gm olive oil
  • 40g (1/2 cup) coarsely grated cheddar
  • 200g rindless bacon rashers, coarsely chopped
  • 130g (1/2 cup) sour cream
  • 125g (1/2 cup) whole egg mayonnaise
  • 1/2 x 35g pkt French Onion Simmer Soup Salt Reduced
  • 21.00 gm fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 iceberg lettuce, leaves separated, torn
  • 60g baby spinach
  • 320g pkt tomato medley mix, halved
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, halved lengthways, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 2 cooked chicken breast fillets, thinly sliced
  • 2 green shallots, thinly sliced
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Spread the bread slices in a single layer on the tray. Drizzle them with 1 tbsp of oil and mix well to coat. Sprinkle cheese over the top. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the bread is golden and crispy. Let them cool, then separate into croutons.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until sizzling. Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  • In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, soup mix, lemon juice, and seasonings. Mix until well blended.
  • Combine lettuce, spinach, tomato, cucumber, chicken, and croutons in a large bowl. Toss well and transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with sour cream mixture and sprinkle with shallot before serving.
