Turkey Cobb Salad

The classic Cobb combines crispy bacon, creamy avocado, rich blue cheese, chopped tomatoes, and chunks of chicken or turkey, providing a pleasing contrast of textures and tastes. Invented at the Brown Derby Restaurant in Los Angeles in the 1930s, the salad was named for the restaurant’s owner, Robert Howard Cobb. Here, we call for smoked turkey breast to enhance the flavor.
