  1. FOR THE VINAIGRETTE:

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, mustard, shallot, and salt and pepper to taste. Slowly pour in the vegetable and olive oils, whisking continuously. Continue whisking for another 10-20 seconds until emulsified. Set aside.

  3. FOR THE SALAD:

  4. Tear any larger lettuce leaves into bite-sized pieces; leave the smaller leaves whole. Place the lettuce in a large salad bowl or 4 individual salad bowls. Arrange the ham, chicken or turkey, and cheese on top, keeping each ingredient separate and radiating the strips outward from the center of the bowl. Place the tomato and egg wedges in between the meats and cheese.

  5. Serve the salad with the vinaigrette on the side, then dress and toss at the table.
