Turkey Cobb SaladYou can mix and match the listed ingredients to create your own version of this salad. We used store-bought roasted turkey, but chicken also works well.- 4 slices (4 ounces) bacon
- 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 large head romaine lettuce, shredded
- 8 ounces (2 cups) roasted turkey breast, cut into 3/4-inch dice
- 1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
- 3 ounces (3/4 cup) blue cheese, crumbled
- 2 hard-cooked eggs, cut into wedges
- 2 plum tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- In a medium skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. The bacon may also be cooked in a 425-degree oven on a rack over a rimmed baking sheet until crisp, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Let cool, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces, and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. While continuing to whisk, drizzle in olive oil until thickened. Add lettuce, and toss to coat. Place on a large serving platter. Arrange remaining ingredients on lettuce as desired, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Absolutely Delicious

Don't mind the health freaks. This recipe is delicious. Don't limit yourself to eating dirt just because you want to eat "healthy". Live life and enjoy it to the fullest. This meal is perfect and the avocado and bacon really sing together. However, I prefer feta to blue cheese.0 of 0 people found this review helpful-

Looks great, for the calorie conscience you can always leave out the egg yolks and cut way back on the bacon/cheese. Avocado is a healthy fat, don't leave out too much. Add more veggies than the recipe calls for and your waistline will thank you also.0 of 0 people found this review helpful-

Beware of foods disguised as salads!

How can something covered in bacon and cheese be called a salad???? I'm sure in the end people will smother this with ranch dressing or something and still think it's healthy. The salad above appears to be clocking in at about 1000-1200 calories (veggies only contribute about 100 of those calories) before adding any salad dressing to it!!!! That's about the same as having a double quarter pounder with cheese, large fries and a diet coke!!! If you add the dressing, then change that to a regular coke and possibly a McDonalds apple pie.0 of 0 people found this review helpful-
