Salad Lyonnaise (See Jane Cook/Inhale)
A lyonnaise salad takes me back to my days of studying abroad in Europe during college. I ordered it frequently because you could always count on it being on the menu (especially in Luxembourg, where I studied) and I thought I was being somewhat healthy because hey, it was a salad! As soon as I spotted "lardons" and "oeufs" on the menu, I thought, "mmm, bacon and eggs. Sold." It's no wonder I gained a few pounds that semester along with all the pommes frites I devoured.
To construct this salad is super simple; frisée (but I just used spring mix + arugula, bacon, croutons, a poached egg (great tutorial here) and a dijon vinaigrette (I make my own--there recipes aplenty on the internets). Bon appétit!

Uhm, not much of a tutorial.
YUmm, looks delicious! I'm extremely jealous of the fact you studied abroad, I'm hoping to as well some point during my undergraduate. Also, I really enjoy the tag "epic fail" aha.
I hope you don't mind but I listed you your blog in my blogroll, how could I not?

I think egg yolk itself makes a great "dressing" over almost anything! That salad looks delicious! Thanks for sharing.
Love these kind of salads! Looks sooo good.

This is awesome! I've only seen a salad with an egg on it one other time- when I was in vegas at a buffet and they put a fried quail egg on my salad, it was different and not something I was used to, but it was delicious!

This looks great. To me it's a perfect transition out of winter into spring salad because its a bit heavier with the egg/ bacon, but you have the light dressing to offset it. Thanks for sharing! (www.blairsays.com)
