Cobb salads are super simple to put together and provide you with a good selection of tasty ingredients that will leave you feeling energized and full. While lots of cobb salad recipes will call for serving it with bread—to keep this dish keto-friendly, we have packed the salad with lots of protein and good fats from vegetables like avocados.
Making this recipe is simple. Start by making the salad dressing in a bowl by adding the mayo, red wine vinegar, and yogurt. This creates a lovely rich and creamy dressing that really brings this dish to life.
Once the dressing is made, you need to slice up the vegetables and get the bacon and eggs ready. The bacon needs to be cooked in a pan and then sliced up and the eggs need to be boiled before being sliced up and added to the bowl. Finally, add the blue cheese and the dressing.
If you don’t like blue cheese, feel free to swap it out for another cheese you prefer like mozzarella or cheddar. And if you want a vegetarian cobb, simply remove the bacon. That’s why we love these types of recipes; they are just a guide. You can customize them to suit your own tastes and preferences.
Cobb salads are traditionally served on a plate by laying out each ingredient into a line and then adding the dressing on top or served on the side. You can either do that with this recipe or mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and add the dressing. Once complete, enjoy!
