Method

Prep and vegetables

  1. 1

    Rinse and thoroughly dry mixed greens; tear into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Dice the tomato, slice the cucumber, and slice the avocado.

Cook proteins

  1. 3

    Cook bacon in a skillet until crisp; transfer to paper towels to drain and crumble into small pieces.

  2. 4

    Hard boil eggs: place in a pot, cover with water, bring to a rolling boil, cover and remove from heat; let sit 9–12 minutes, then cool in ice water and peel.

Assemble

  1. 5

    Arrange mixed greens on a large platter or individual plates as a base.

  2. 6

    Arrange rows or sections of tomato, cucumber, avocado, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, and bleu cheese crumbles on top.

Dressings and serving

  1. 7

    Blue cheese dressing (optional)

    Whisk mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk with bleu cheese crumbles until smooth. Stir in lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If too thick, thin with a splash of water.

  2. 8

    Vinaigrette (optional)

    Whisk olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 9

    Serve Cobb salad with your preferred dressing on the side or lightly drizzle over the greens.
