Ingredients

Cobb Salad

5 cups romaine lettuce chopped
3 large hard boiled eggs peeled, sliced or quartered
2 chicken breasts grilled
1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1 small red onion sliced
6 slices bacon cooked, chopped
1 large avocado sliced
½ cup blue cheese crumbles

Cobb Salad Dressing

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic minced
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Assemble salad ingredients in a large bowl. You can top the lettuce with other ingredients displayed on top, or toss to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper and garlic until well combined.
Pour dressing over salad, or serve dressing on the side

Notes

Cook the bacon and eggs ahead so assembly is quick when you are ready to eat.
Keep the dressing separate until serving so the greens stay crisp.
Group the toppings in rows for a beautiful presentation, or toss for easy eating.
Use a rotisserie chicken to save time on busy days.
Add toasted nuts for extra crunch and texture.
