Bacon, Lettuce And Sun-Dried Tomato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    10 -12 slices bacon, diced
    7 ounces sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, sliced lengthwise into strips
    8 cups salad greens (use any combination...I use arugula, spring mix, baby spinach and romaine)
    1/2 cup green onion, chopped (6 to 8 onions)
    2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh tarragon leaves, chopped
    1 cup red wine vinegar
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    1/2 cup olive oil
    4 large eggs, hardboiled
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
    Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium high heat. Remove the pieces with a slotted spoon. Drain on paper toweling.
    Remove the sun-dried tomatoes from the oil. Reserve the oil for another use.
    Combine the salad greens and herbs in a large bowl.
    Whisk together the red wine vinegar and balsamic vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil.
    Peel and finely chopped the hardboiled eggs.
    Toss the lettuce with enough dressing to just coat the leaves. Toss with the bacon and sun-dried tomatoes. Garnish with the chopped egg. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
