Easy & Delicious Cobb Salad Platter

Yesterday, I was wasting time perusing Pinterest and went down a rabbit hole looking at beautiful salad platters! I was so inspired to make my own that I found myself at the grocery store buying all the ingredients for a Cobb Salad Platter. This salad isn’t completely traditional, obviously but I promise it was completely delicious. After we ate, I did decide that I should have added boiled eggs and possibly a little prosciutto, but I can definitely tweak it for next time. If you’re doing any kind of summer entertaining, this salad platter will make your life easy. It’s one platter and the elements can be prepared beforehand with the exception of the avocado. Make it your own, use what’s fresh and seasonal and your guests will love it! Scroll down to learn what I did.

Here’s What You’ll Need…

Butter Crunch, Bibb or Boston lettuce

Sliced Radishes and Cucumbers

Small Mozzarella Balls (drizzled with a little good quality olive oil, Maldon Sea Salt and a sprinkle of Italian Seasoning)

Sliced Red Onions

Cherry Tomatoes, halved

Crispy Bacon

Grilled Chicken Breasts

Sliced Avocado

Ranch Dressing

Optional - Halved Boiled Eggs, Prosciutto or sliced good quality ham, a sprinkle of aged white cheddar

I lined my platter with the lettuce, arranged the veggies as artfully as possible, added the sliced bacon, grilled chicken and mozzarella and lastly, added the sliced avocado. I used Ken’s Steak House Ranch Dressing, but use whatever brand you like or if you’re feeling especially industrious, you can make your own! I didn’t specify quantity because it depends on the number of people you’re feeding. Clearly, we had some leftovers last night, but because the salad wasn’t dressed, they’ll make a delicious lunch!

We really enjoyed this dinner and I know you will too!
