Serious salad.
That is what this salad is.
Serious.
Seriously big, seriously awesome, seriously loaded and seriously so good.
I kind of think it is the salad of everyone’s dreams.
Even if you are not into steak you’d like this salad. The chicken version is just as good and you could even do a vegetarian version with black beans or a crumbled veggie burger like this awesome one.
Just do not skip the fries.
Or the eggs
Okay, or the cheese.
So the weekend? Let’s talk about that for a sec.
I am sad it’s over.
The weather was awesome, the food was bone licking good and the house (err condo) was….
Quiet!
Alright, really only Saturday was quiet and really only for few hours, but they were some awesome hours. Plus, I was extra excited because I had my dad out on a mission.
Yes, I am nineteen and I send my dad out on missions.
He’s the best, especially at finding odd items. Odd, food blogger items that most women, and probably no other person my age, wants anything to do with.
I told him Friday night that he had one goal this weekend. One goal that he’d better complete or it was chicken scraps for dinner all week. No fancy fish, no fruit salsas and no cobblers doused with kahlua sauce.
Hah.
Just kidding. I am not that mean. At least I am not that mean all the time.
I have a feeling my brother Trevor would argue this.
Anyway, I sent my dad to find wood.
Yeah, old beat up wood. It was the perfect mission for him. He’s weird and likes old bikes (like really old road bikes), old cars (think rusty Mercedes – not cute little red, James Bond cars) and apparently finding me old wood to shoot food on.
Well mission complete.
I now have a big wooden palette sitting in my bedroom. It kind of looks like the wood on an old boat dock
And I am now very, very happy.
I love my old dock and I love that my dad was so happy to go and spend his Saturday finding it for me.
Gotta love dads.
So I wanted to return the favor and make this salad….
But of course I did not. I was a lame daughter and fed everyone pasta or maybe even leftovers. I can’t remember, I did way too much cooking this weekend. I did make ice cream though and in my opinion nothing says thank you like ice cream!
Back to the salad. The salad with homemade baked french fries, grilled steal hard-boiled eggs, poached eggs, blue cheese butter, caramelized walnuts and some more blue cheese for you know, good measure.
Every salad should taste this great.
Definitely made to make Monday night better.

Yeah… I like this.
Wow…this salad looks unbelievable! I could turn my hubby into a salad lover with this one. Hopping over from the Tuesday Talent Show to thank you for the inspiration…yum!!!
Thanks Samantha!! Hope you guys love this!
Ok, I’ve been eating a lot of salads lately, but not like this. I have clearly been missing out!!
Haha! Thank you, Deborah!
This salad is genius!! So gorgeous!!
Thank you so much, Julie!
oh my gosh – this salad is amazing! Everything you could possibly want and then some!
Thank you so much, Pam!
What a salad! So many delicious ingredients. Great idea!
Thank you, Laura!
Dads are the greatest, aren’t they? So is this salad! Love 😉
Yup! They really are! Thanks so much, Nessa!
This is a serious salad. And seriously, I can’t wait to see how you use french fries next!
Haha! Thank you so much, Cassie!
French fries in salad!? Are you kidding!? This is genius!! 🙂
You are my kinda gal…This is perfect….My first time visiting your blog, and what I see is what I want right now…
Hehe! Thank you so much, Ash! Happy you like what you see, I will try and keep the good food coming!
My kind of salad … minus the greens! Seriously, this looks fantastic! By the way, I enjoyed your Q&A in FoodieCrush Mag – Congratulations 🙂
Thank you so much, Nicole!! I am so excited about the interview. Happy you enjoyed it!
Your kind of my hero for putting french fries and steak on a salad! Plus that wood board your dad found makes your photos even more drool worthy which I didn’t think was possible.
Haha! Your hero! LOL! Thank you so very much, Nicole!! That is actually not the board, but thank you anyway!! The board will be coing up sometime this week though!
I still can’t get over that you put french fries on a salad. Amazing!
Haha! French fries on salad is the norm around here!! I have always done it! Thank you so much, Faith!
French fries on a salad? Sure, why not?? I think that french fries sound WAY better than croutons anyways! 😉
Trust me, they are so much better than croutons!! I have always put fries on salads. Is that weird? Hah!
Thanks Hannah!
First, love love love the oven fries! And the steak. Even better since it is in salad form, so it must be healthy right? 😉 Second, I have a random stack of food blogger things too that I think no other 20 something woman would want…and I often make my dad go with me in search of them since most of them come from the home improvement stores!
Thank you, Jenna!! So glad I am not the only one who drags their dads along to find weird food blogger things!! Hah!
Now this salad I could eat everyday (in vegetarian form)!
Poached eggs and fries! Yum!
These pictures are gorgeous too!
Thank you so much Shashi! This is great minus the steak and plus some black beans or even just with the eggs!! The best part are the fries and eggs. Oh and the blue cheese! I love blue cheese!
