Spring Cobb Salad

Delicious and filling salad that is perfect to enjoy this time of year!

Ingredients

  • Salad:
  • 6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 12 sprigs of asparagus
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 6-8 cups greens of your choice – lettuce spinach, arugula
  • ¼ cup big rock blue cheese or sub with your favorite tangy cheese
  • 6 radishes thinly sliced
  • 4 eggs hard boiled and sliced
  • 1 avocado peeled and sliced
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions or chives
  • Honey Dijon Vinaigrette:
  • 2 1/2 Tablespoon raw honey melted if solid
  • 3 Tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 1/2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook your bacon and hard boil your eggs if not using leftovers
  2. For the asparagus, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the oil, then sauté the asparagus for 2-3 minutes, stirring to evenly cook, until bright green and just barely tender. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
  3. To assemble the salad, in a large serving bowl or platter, arrange the greens, bacon, cheese, sliced radishes, sliced eggs and avocado. Sprinkle the chives or green onions all over the top.
  4. For the dressing, you can either shake the ingredients together in a tightly lidded mason jar or whisk together in a bowl. Combine the dressing ingredients and either shake, whisk, or blend with an immersion blender, and serve either tossed with the salad or on the side. Enjoy!
