A vibrant and hearty salad, the Cobb is a symphony of textures and flavors. Crisp romaine, creamy avocado, savory smoked turkey, and tangy blue cheese harmonize in a delightful dance, all brought together by a delicate Champagne vinaigrette. A culinary masterpiece in a bowl!

Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil and Champagne vinegar until emulsified. (2 minutes)

02

Step

In a large, nonreactive serving bowl, gently toss the romaine lettuce with the Champagne vinaigrette, ensuring each leaf is lightly coated. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Arrange the smoked turkey, blue cheese, avocado slices, corn, bacon, and hard-boiled eggs artfully over the dressed romaine. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Season the salad with freshly ground black pepper to taste, then gently toss to combine the ingredients. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Garnish with freshly chopped chives just before serving to elevate the presentation and add a fresh, herbaceous note. (1 minute)

For the most flavorful salad, use high-quality smoked turkey and creamy, ripe avocados.
To prevent browning, slice the avocado just before serving.
Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as Gorgonzola or Roquefort, for the blue cheese.
If Champagne vinegar is unavailable, white wine vinegar makes an excellent substitute.
For a vegetarian option, omit the smoked turkey and bacon, and add grilled halloumi cheese or marinated tofu.
