Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To a small pot, add 3 cups (6 cups) warm water. Bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Using a spoon, lower egg into the boiling water. Cook for 7 min for a runny yolk or 9 min for a set yolk.** Drain and rinse egg under cold water for 30 sec, until cool enough to peel. Peel, then cut eggs into quarter wedges. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, on a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange bacon in a single layer.
- Sprinkle bacon with half the Southwest Spice Blend.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 12-14 min, until bacon is crisp and cooked through.**
- Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers, half the corn (use all for 4 servings) and 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water. Stir to combine. Cover and cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until tender. Season with salt, pepper and remaining Southwest Spice Blend.
- Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
- Roughly chop bacon.
- In a small bowl, combine ranch and chipotle sauce.
- In a large bowl, add half the chipotle-ranch sauce. Add spring mix and tomatoes, then toss to coat.
- Divide salad between bowls. Top with pepper-corn mixture, eggs and bacon.
- Drizzle remaining chipotle-ranch sauce over top.
- Sprinkle with feta.
If you've opted for double bacon, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the regular portion of bacon.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The chipotle-ranch dressing and southwest spice blend are the standout elements, delivering bold, savoury flavour that wins over even self-described salad skeptics.
- Ease of prep: Most reviewers found this quick and straightforward to pull together, though a few noted it involves more steps and dishes than a typical salad.
- Suggestions: Add an extra egg per person or toss in grilled chicken to boost protein; some reviewers also recommend using all the corn rather than reserving half. Consider frying the bacon instead of roasting if you prefer more even crisping. If the spice level feels too high, use only part of the chipotle sauce and southwest blend to suit your taste.
- Leftovers: The salad is best eaten fresh, as the greens soften and the dressing makes everything soggy if left overnight.
- Portions: Several reviewers felt the serving size was on the smaller side for a main meal, particularly for those skipping the egg; doubling the bacon or adding extra protein helps round it out.
