And it was seriously FANTASTIC! Everyone thought it was yummy. I followed the recipe from HERE. I did it exactly as the recipe stated, (except the I really didn't measure much, lol) and added grilled chicken. Oh.. And I used the whole pound of bacon... 'cause you can never have too much bacon, right?

Mix the dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor and process till smooth. Mix the salad ingredients in a big bowl (and if you are like me, you have to set aside a serving with no onions, for the picky eater). Add dressing and mix well. Yummm!
