🥗 LIGHT AND REFRESHING WELL DRESSED SALAD
4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 small chicken breast, seasoned, cooked and chopped
½ red pepper, cut into strips
2 celery stalks, cut into ½ inch pieces
Salt & pepper
DRESSING
3 Tbsp. Smoky Chipotle Honey Mustard
1 ½ Tbsp. rice vinegar
1 ½ Tbsp. sesame oil
Place all salad ingredients in a serving bowl. Place all dressing ingredients in a shaker jar, mix well and drizzle half over salad, toss and add more as needed. Store any remaining dressing in a tightly covered jar in the refrigerator. This dressing makes a great marinade as well. If you prefer a creamier dressing, add a tablespoon of mayonnaise.

Place in a piping bag and refrigerate or use immediately. Pipe whipped cream onto cheesecakes, drizzle with chocolate syrup and sprinkle with remaining crushed Oreos.
