Salad Ingredients
Start your day with a burst of morning freshness! This breakfast salad is made of ingredients that are not only healthy but delicious too. Plus it’s easy to customize! So if there’s a dressing you want to use or something you want to leave out, you can make it your own. (Measurements are in the recipe card at the end of the post.)
Lettuce Spring Mix: Fresh, crisp base with essential vitamins and minerals your body needs. Olive Oil: Smooth, tasty drizzle to enhance the flavor of your breakfast salad. You can also swap this out for any dressing of your choice! (See my tips section below for ideas!) Fresh Lemon Juice: Zesty, citrusy flavor booster. It also helps to keep the veggies fresh. Salt and Pepper: Trusty seasonings, add to taste! Bacon: Our breakfast hero! For easy prep, use precooked bacon! Any way to save time in the morning is a win for me. Eggs: Scrambled, fried, or poached, cook these just the way you like them! Grape Tomatoes: Sweet, juicy bursts of flavor. Cherry or Roma tomatoes also work. Avocado: The perfect dose of healthy fats. I also love their creamy texture! Crostini (Toasted Bread): For some extra crunch. Everything Bagel Seasoning: A flavorful garnish that adds a fun to twist to the breakfast salad.
How to Make Healthy Breakfast Salad
It takes less than 10 minutes to prepare this breakfast salad, so it’s the perfect choice for busy mornings! Cook up your bacon and eggs, then toss everything together with some olive oil and a squeeze of lemon!
Switch Up the Veggies: Feel free to add any vegetables to this salad. Peppers, grilled zucchini, or chopped red onion are just a few that come to mind. Add Different Dressing: Add more flavor to your breakfast salad with some lemon vinaigrette, green goddess dressing, Italian dressing, or classic Caesar! Protein Options: Crumbled sausage or sliced chicken sausage would be delicious on this salad! Sometimes I add a spoonful of cottage cheese on top, it’s SO good! (And has a whopping 25 grams of protein per cup!) Toppings: Try adding salsa verde, pico de Gallo, or a drizzle of hot sauce on top!
