Ingredients

  • 1 Garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 c. red wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • kosher salt
  • Black pepper
  • 1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp. butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 lb. kale, chopped
  • 1 c. grated Parmesan
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 c. croutons

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line sheet pan with parchment and place bacon strips without overlapping them. Bake until crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, make dressing: In a small jar, add garlic, vinegar, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 cup oil and, with a tightly fitted lid, shake until blended. Keep in fridge until ready to serve.
