Classic Endive Salad
This pretty salad is a variation of my mother’s old recipe. Bacon makes it hearty, and water chestnuts add crunch. —Penny Hamilton, Granby, Colorado
10 Servings
Prep: 35 min.
Ingredients
8 bacon strips, chopped
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt

8 green onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sliced water chestnuts
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts, toasted
1/2 cup salad croutons
2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped

In a salad bowl, combine the endive, tomatoes, onions, water
chestnuts, walnuts, croutons and bacon. Pour warm dressing over
