Tossed Cobb Salad

This is a fantastic salad for lunch whether to pack for work or at home. Easy and fast to make ahead with little preparation full of nutritious veggies using simple ingredients that you probably have already in your fridge.

I made this salad the other day and we ate it for supper. I know, you probably frown, eggs for supper? To put your mind to ease, you don't eat a lot of egg and if it makes you feel better, you can omit it all together.   

Here is my version of this delicious Cobb salad. 

Ingredients:
2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 tomato, sliced
1/2 red pepper, sliced
1 baby cucumber, sliced
1 avocado, sliced
4 –5 tbsp. corn
2 hard boiled eggs, sliced
2 tbsp. simulated bacon bits, optional
Ranch salad dressing, to taste


Place lettuce in a bowl. Add sliced tomato,  pepper, cucumber, avocado and corn.
Using salad tongs, gently stir together to mix.

Divide salad between two plates; top with slices of boiled egg and simulated bacon bits, (optional).
Serve with Ranch salad dressing of your choice.


Makes: 2 servings


For a lighter  dressing,  whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice and a pinch of  salt. Drizzle over salad.
