Description

The Cobb is a protein-packed salad that will stick with your kids through the school day. This version relies on smoked turkey for the signature flavor that typically comes from bacon. Blue cheese is an optional add-in since its flavor is too strong for a lot of little ones. The assembly is more composed than chopped, which makes it as pretty as it is tasty.

Ingredients

2 cups chopped butter, red leaf, or romaine lettuce
1/2 cup chopped tomato or 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 large ripe avocado, cubed
2 or 3 slices smoked turkey, coarsely chopped
2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese (optional)
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. 1. Divide the lettuce between two large containers. In each container, arrange half the tomato, avocado, turkey, eggs, and blue cheese (if using) in rows on top of the lettuce.
  2. 2. To make the dressing, divide the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil between two small containers. Put on the lids and shake well.
