This was really good! I used Romaine hearts and peppercorn ranch dressing. I will make this again - thanks!

Great! I used shredded aged cheddar instead of blue cheese (not a fan of it) I replaced the ranch dressing with ceasar. Good stuff!

Great recipe! I made this salad for a ladies' game night, and let me tell you, all the ladies raved over it! There was nothing left! I used spring mix/romaine for the lettuce and it was so crisp and fresh. I also added some sliced olives and mushrooms for more texture and color. This was a great "company" salad.

This has always been a great salad to use up the stuff in the fridge before you head to the store again. We use a vinegar/oil dressing or lemon juice instead of Ranch. We also use Romaine, not iceberg.

Very nice. I completely forgot about the chicken! It was still good though. I used basil/sun-dried tomato feta instead of blue cheese. A nice combination of flavors. Thanks, Bill!

What a delicious salad! The BEST!!! What's not to love? From somebody who's idea of a salad is onions on a hamburger. This is AWESOME delicious! Thank you!

Delicious and quick to prepare. Added mushrooms for extra texture. My hubby loves the blue cheese, but it's a bit too strong for me - mine was just as good without it.

My husband is on the south beach diet & came home w/ some avocado & chicken. We needed something to make and this was the perfect recipe! We both enjoyed it AND it is practically carb-free, which fit the bill.

Very nice salad. My husband feels that chicken AND bacon is a bit too much meat though. I might cut down on chicken. avocado is great for this dish. I didn't put blue cheese because we can't get them, but it's still good

This is a favorite recipe. Try browning the chicken, I use boned breast meat, in the drippings from the bacon (delish). My favorite dressing is a restaurant French Blue. So, since the blue cheese is already in the recipe, I just add the French dressing. Thanks Bill for a great recipe.

Delicious!! Delicious!! Delicious!! I omitted the green onions (just don't like them) and added some canned peas and black olives. Used the Ranch (despite the controversy going on about what dressing to use) and wouldn't have it any other way. I think it's all about the Ranch you choose to use. I used Marie's Creamy Ranch (found in the produce isle) and experienced heaven for a short while!! Try this!!

We really enjoyed this salad! The kids are off of school today, & wanted to go to one of those buffet places (in which all they eat is a salad anyway & why pay $20 when I had all the ingredients on hand..even the blue cheese). I did use 1/2 iceberg & 1/2 spinich (uncooked), & used left over turkey, it's delicious! OOPS, I forgot to mention to the kids that there is blue cheese in it & they never even noticed ;) Thanks Bill!

Hmmm....Ranch dressing and iceberg? Now that's a first for me, including the reviewer who said that thousand island was the only way to go. However, who cares if it's not the "original" recipe; if it tastes good, eat it! I prefer a mixture of romaine and butter lettuce with a dressing consisting of red wine vinegar, olive oil (which I drizzle in slowly to emulsify) dijon mustard, chopped fresh chives and crumbled blue cheese. Any way you decide to make this salad with whatever dressing, it will always be a hit. Thanks so much Mr. Bill!
