In reply to Vickie. Vickie, I just finished eating my wilted lettuce salad for a late lunch. After pouring the dressing over the salad and it was wilted, I broke two eggs into the skillet that I made the dressing in and stirred quickly - since I did not use milk and whisked the eggs, they really were not scrambled, but “sort of” I LOVE this recipe but not with hard boiled eggs. Happy to hear this is a childhood memory of yours

My Slovak grandmother added sliced or quartered potatoes to hers and we couldn’t wait to eat it.

Love wilted lettuce. My grandmother’s family all made this. They added sour cream which gave it some consistency. I don’t recall that they ever added hard boiled eggs but I think that really adds to the salad. They always used fresh leaf lettuce from the garden which transfers to a softer salad. I am going to try a firmer leaf lettuce next time. It will be so fun to plan my next family dinner, get together around wilted lettuce and introduce it to my grandchildren.

In reply to Vickie. That's how my mom does it, cooks the egg in the bacon grease.

Really enjoyed this. I think I would prefer a little more sugar .

In reply to Vickie. @sharon, yes,you wisk the eggs(2) together then wisk them into the dressing mixture and cook for 2 minutes. Be sure to wisk the dressing the entire time so the eggs don't turn into scrambled eggs!!
