Well, I usually just wing it.

Torn-up romaine
As many pieces of sliced turkey breast as I want to eat (usually a couple
of ounces).
If I've got cooked bacon on hand, some cooked bacon, cut up into 1" squares.
A teaspoon or so of balsamic vinegar
A half tablespoon or so of hot bacon grease
A half tablespoon or so of extra-virgin olive oil

Whisk the vinegar, olive oil, and bacon grease together and dress the
salad with it.

Anything else that's lying around the kitchen looking compatible might
go in. Slivered almonds, for example.
