{grabbing greens} cobb salad

A classic that I love. What more can I say. It is a great hearty salad that I rarely make at home but love to order when I am out. Not sure why. It is so easy and good. Make it yours add what you like and do it at home.

Here is what I am going to top mine with tonight:

hard boiled egg (not sure you can call it a cobb with out it)

bacon

blue cheese

grilled chicken

sun dried tomatoes

fresh tomatoes

red onion

celery

black olives

oh ... and how about some avacado

sounds good...

now for the dressing...

olive oil

redwine vinegar

dijon mustard

1/2 tsp or less of sugar

pepper - lots

salt

garlic

Shake let stand and dress the salad. I also like throwing my fresh tomatoes into this dressing and let them marinate. It is a wonderful way to add zest to the dressing and have some yummy marinated tomatoes.

enjoy!
