Servings: 4 people
Equipment
Ingredients
For the Dressing:
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Salad:
- 1 head romaine lettuce coarsely chopped
- 4 hard-boiled eggs peeled and quartered
- 1 ½ cups cooked salmon flaked
- 8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 avocado thinly sliced
- ½ cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
Instructions
- In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking until the dressing is well combined and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread the chopped romaine lettuce evenly on a large serving platter.
- Arrange the flaked salmon, crumbled bacon, quartered hard-boiled eggs, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, crumbled blue cheese, and chives in rows over the lettuce for a classic Cobb presentation.
- Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad just before serving, or serve it on the side so everyone can add their own.
Notes
- Use a salad spinner to wash and dry the lettuce. It’s the easiest way to remove all the water, which helps the dressing cling to the greens.
- Chop the ingredients into similar-sized pieces so you can get a little bit of everything in each bite.
- Customize the ingredients to make your perfect salad. Swap the salmon with any other protein, and add your favorite chopped veggies (red onions, corn and bell pepper for example).
