[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Cobb Salad is one of my favourites, because it is big enough that you can have it as a meal. Its a great mix of blue cheese, bacon, chicken and lettuce. You can mix and match, of course, with things you like though. This is a great template recipe and you can modify as you like.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]YIELD: 6 servings
