Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 pounds Boston, Bibb, green or red leaf lettuce, or a mixture, washed, trimmed, and dried
  2. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  3. 1 cup dressing of your choice, such as shallot or herb vinaigrette, ranch, or blue cheese
  4. 4 ounces imported Swiss cheese, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces
  5. 4 ounces baked ham, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces
  6. 4 ounces smoked turkey, chicken or duck breast, cut into 2-inch long matchstick pieces
  7. 4 ounces rare roast beef, cut into 1/4-inch by 2 inch matchstick pieces
  8. 2 hard-cooked eggs, shelled, cut into wedges
  9. 1 ripe Hass avocado, diced
  10. 16 vine-ripened cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  11. 2 kirby (pickling) cucumbers, sliced
  12. 1 cup toasted croutons

Instructions

  1. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and put into a large mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss with 1/2 cup of the dressing. Divide the lettuce among 4 large individual serving bowls. Arrange the cheese, meats, eggs, and avocado, like the spokes of a wheel, on top of each salad. Scatter the tomatoes, cucumbers, and croutons on top. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve and pass the remaining dressing at the table.

Horrible flavor. I definitely wouldn’t recommend, because it has a terrible flavor ( i used organic yummy ingredients) and you can make something that is cheaper, tastes better and doesn’t take all of your time. Overall don’t make this salid.

I can remember way back when I had to make individual Cobb salads for about thirty doctors. With help, of course. Seemed to take forever but once they were served, we went back into the kitchen and made our own…yummy stuff!

I only had 15 grape tomatoes. 

Still turned out delicious. 
I also subbed the Swiss cheese for marble. And used thousand island dressing.
