Cobb Salad
The chicken breast fillet supplies valuable protein and ensures that the complete daily requirement of niacin is covered. This B vitamin is important for the entire metabolism and has a dilating effect on the blood vessels.
This delicious salad is a creation from the "Brown Derby Restaurant" in Los Angeles, where it is on the menu under the name "Cobb Salad". Add a wholegrain baguette to your meal to gain some extra fiber.

Remove bacon from pan with a skimmer and drain well on paper towels.
Rinse tomatoes, remove seeds and cut into fine strips.
Cut avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh and cut into slices.
Combine the vinegar and mustard and season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk in the remaining olive oil.
Rinse the lettuces and watercress, spin dry and cut into bite-sized pieces. Rinse chives, shake dry and cut into small rings.
Mix the chopped greens loosely in a large bowl.
