Cobb Salad Recipe

Cobb Salad

1. 1

   Prepare the bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the smoked bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain on paper towels and crumble them once they have cooled.

2. 2

   Roast the tomatoes

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tomatoes in half, place them on a baking sheet, and drizzle with a bit of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. Roast for about 20-25 minutes or until they are slightly caramelized.

3. 3

   Soft boil the eggs

   Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently add the eggs and cook for 6-7 minutes. Remove from heat and place the eggs in ice water to stop the cooking. Once cooled, peel them and cut them in half.

4. 4

   Make the vinaigrette

   In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

5. 5

   Assemble the salad

   In a large salad bowl, layer the mixed salad greens at the bottom. Top with crumbled bacon, roasted tomatoes, sliced avocado, soft-boiled egg halves, and crumbled blue cheese. Drizzle with the parmesan vinaigrette and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

6. 6

   Serve

   Toss the salad gently to combine everything and serve immediately with additional vinaigrette on the side if desired.
