Ingredients

4 Smart Price Eggs

3 rashers Smart Price Unsmoked Streaky Bacon

2 thick slices bread (1-2 days old), cubed

1 tbsp sunflower oil

1 Asda Cos Lettuce, torn into large pieces

4 tbsp 40% Less Fat Creamy Caesar Dressing

40g Parmesan, shaved

Method

1
Put the eggs in a small pan with just enough cold water to cover them. Put on the lid and heat until boiling. Remove from the heat. Leave the eggs in the covered pan for 8-9 minutes. Or, if you prefer soft yolks, leave them for 7-9 minutes. Drain and leave to cool.
2
Meanwhile, dry-fry the bacon until crisp. Put on a plate lined with kitchen roll, then set aside.
3
Toss the bread in the oil until evenly coated. Tip into the pan and cook on a low-to-medium heat, turning often, until crisp and golden. Set aside.
4
In a large bowl, toss the salad with the Caesar dressing. Cut the bacon into small bits.
5
Shell and quarter the eggs and arrange on top of the salad. Then add the bacon, croutons and Parmesan. Season to taste.
