BLT and Poached Egg Salad

The classic French salad of frisée, chewy unsmoked bacon and a runny poached egg has been made kid-friendly here with sweet cherry tomatoes and butter lettuce. Don’t cook the bacon too long; you want it to be a bit chewy rather than crunchy. To incorporate the bread element of a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich, top the salad with croutons.
