    2 cups iceburg lettuce, finely chopped
    1 cup watercress, coarse stems discarded, finely chopped
    3 ripe avocados
    3 cups cooked chicken breasts, finely diced (a rotisserie chicken from

    6 slices cooked lean bacon, crumbled
    1 large tomato, seeded, finely diced
    1 large hard-boiled egg, finely chopped
    2 TB chopped fresh chives

    ~~~Dressing~~~
    1/3 cup red wine vinegar

    1/2 cup finely grated Roquefort

    Recipe



    Toss together romaine hearts, Boston, iceberg lettuces and watercress
    in a
    large salad bowl.

    Halve, pit and peel the avocados and cut them into 1/2" pieces.

    Arrange chicken, bacon, tomato and avocado decoratively over the
    greens.
    Garnish the salad with the chopped egg and chives.


    Whisk together vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper to taste.

    Add oil in a slow stream, continuously whisking. Whisk dressing until
    thick
    and blended.

    Stir in Roquefort. Whisk dressing again and pour it over the salad.

    Toss salad well before serving.

    Yield: 6 servings.
