This spring-themed cobb salad will put all other lunch salads to shame! Loaded to the brim with spring goodness and drizzled with an INSANE red wine dressing!
Monday salad to beat all the other things = This.
Today…I shove obnoxiously-loaded and ridiculously-huge cobb salad into your sad Monday face.
Because spring called and requested its specialty spring salad loaded with all.the.works.
I mean all the salad works, guys. It’s what’s going down today and its going down BIG. See for yourself. –>
Go big beautiful salads or you might as well just eat a hamburger. <<<<< le truth.
So let’s talk about everything I loaded into one little salad bowl. I probably overloaded a little bit, but wait, is there even any such thing when we’re talking about salads??
The more loaded = the merrier.
Let’s make a salad list. We’ve got…
Greens.
Asparagus.
Chicken.
Bacon.
Eggs.
Avocado.
Tomatoes.
Cheeeeeeese.
So overloaded. Yet so worth it.
Ugh. The neat little lines of cobb salad goodness make me strangely thrilled every.time. Organized salads for the WIN!
And the red wine vinaigrette. Holy MOLY, you’re going to love it, guys. Tangy, slightly sweet, and it’s just a refreshing change from the traditional creamy dressings that adorn cobb salads and kinda take away the purpose of actually EATING salad if you know what I mean.
You might want to forgo the drizzling of this dressing on your actual salad and take to the more effective method of guzzling.
Your salad game = changed forever, guys. So much spring stuff to love on.
Sooooo, let’s start the cobb salad love-fest, mmkay?
