Cobb Salad - Queen Bee Style

Makes 2 or More Servings
This salad is a hit with blue cheese lovers. Robert Howard Cobb first made this salad late one night at his restaurant in Hollywood, CA. He threw a bunch of leftover ingredients together and served it with French dressing. The blend of ingredients were so good that he added it to the menu. Our Cobb is served chilled and topped with our famous Lemon Vinaigrette.
