Cobb Salad

[HeadChef]

Try adding Roquefort cheese or any cheese of your choice to the toppings of this popular salad. Use twice the amount of prepared mustard if you don’t have dry mustard readily available in your pantry.

Serves 4
Prep Time 25 minutes
Cooking Time 10 minutes

For the dressing
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon coarse salt
black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 to 1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

For the salad
1 head lettuce, chopped
1 bunch arugula, chopped
2 heads romaine hearts, chopped
1 cup shredded carrots

1 chicken breast, grilled or poached and cut into small cubes or shredded
1/3 cup olives, sliced
2 medium tomatoes peeled and diced
3 eggs, hardboiled, peeled and chopped

Hi,,,


I like it with crumbled blue cheese and blue cheese dressing. Maybe not the authentic recipe, but awesome!! I like ordering Cobb salad in a restaurant. It's interesting to see the variations different restaurants have on the salad.
