Notes
- Prep ahead: Make the chicken, bacon, and eggs in advance for quicker assembly.
- Try another chicken method: Use air fryer chicken breasts or grill pan chicken breast if you prefer.
- Keep the dressing separate until serving so the lettuce stays crisp.
- Cut the avocado last for the best color and texture.
- Dressing options: Blue cheese, ranch, and creamy Caesar all work well.
