Cobb Salad
Health Highlights
A hearty salad with spinach, eggs and turkey! Great tasting!

Ingredients


2 cup Spinach
2 large Egg (hard boiled, cut into quarters)
1 tbsp Roquefort (blue) cheese (crumbled)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
2 slice Turkey bacon, cooked
1/4 tsp Sea Salt (for dressing)
1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil (for dressing)
1 large egg Egg yolk (for dressing)
1 tbsp Dijon mustard (for dressing)
4 tbsp Lemon juice (for dressing)
1/2 tsp Black pepper (for dressing)

Instructions


1. Wash and dry spinach then chop into pieces.

2. Add eggs to a pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring water and eggs to a rolling boil at medium/high heat for about 8-10 minutes. Remove eggs from heat, drain and cool in ice water, and peel.

3. Crumble cheese with hands. Cut cherry tomatoes in half or leave full if they are bite-size.

4. Cook turkey bacon by placing strips on a skillet and turn every 2-3 minutes, adjusting heat if necessary for about 8-10 minutes until bacon reaches your desired crisp. Transfer strips to a paper-towel lined plate to absorb excess oil. Cut bacon into bite-size pieces.

5. Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl.

6. Separate 1 large egg yolk and whisk in a separate large bowl.   

7. Blend egg yolk, mustard, salt, lemon juice, and pepper in a food processor or blender, until smooth. Slowly add oil until emulsified.

8. Add all salad ingredients together, and drizzle with dressing. Serve and enjoy!
