Cobb Salad with the Best Dressing

Cobb Salad is a classic American salad that typically includes chopped lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, blue cheese, and grilled chicken. It’s often served with a vinaigrette or a creamy dressing.

For the best dressing, a classic choice is a tangy red wine vinaigrette, but a creamy blue cheese dressing pairs beautifully with the Cobb Salad’s ingredients. Here’s a quick recipe for both:

Red Wine Vinaigrette

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon honey
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey.
2. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is well combined.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, combine the blue cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise.
2. Stir in the lemon juice.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste. For a chunkier texture, lightly mash the blue cheese into the mixture.

Either of these dressings would complement the flavors of a Cobb Salad wonderfully!
