What is a Cobb Salad?

The original Cobb Salad was developed by Bob Cobb in 1937 for his Brown Derby Restaurant in Los Angeles. It has become a famous American dish and is similar to a Chef’s Salad. It starts with a bed of green lettuce with rows of ingredients arranged over the top just like we did in our Salmon Cobb Salad, and it is served with a vinaigrette.

Cobb Salad Ingredients:

We love using cooked Chicken Breast from our Juicy Instant Pot Whole Chicken but a store-bought rotisserie chicken works great to save time and the only thing you have to cook is the bacon and hard-boiled eggs. This is one super satisfying salad. Since it has so much protein, you can eat it as a main course or as a side salad.

Can I Substitute the Blue Cheese?

The cheese of choice for the original Cobb Salad is blue cheese. We used a gorgonzola blue cheese but a Roquefort or other blue cheese would work as well. If you aren’t a fan of blue cheese, a crumbled feta would work here also.

What is the Best Cobb Salad Dressing?

A vinaigrette is the classic dressing for Cobb Salad. We use a homemade balsamic vinaigrette here. If you wanted to substitute the dressing, our Avocado Ranch or Jalapeno Ranch would work well. If using a creamy ranch-based dressing, I would recommend using feta cheese instead of blue cheese.

Can I Make Cobb Salad Ahead?

You can make the salad and the dressing 2-3 hours ahead of your dinner. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Keep the salad and dressing separate until ready to serve. Here are some make-ahead tips:

  • Dressing – make this in a mason jar so you can shake it well just before serving in case it separates. Serve it right out of the mason jar.
  • Lettuce can be rinsed and dried ahead (a salad Spinner works best), then refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Avocado should be sliced shortly before serving since avocado tends to discolor when it comes in contact with air.
  • Chicken Breast can be pre-cooked and chilled (or use meat from a store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time).
  • Bacon can be browned ahead. Drain on paper towels and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Eggs can be made several days in advance. Cook hard-boiled eggs and refrigerate until ready to use.

    Hi, I was just wondering if I could possibly reuse ranch and is there another type of cheese I could use I don’t care for blue cheese or feta. Would you be so kind as to maybe suggest another type of cheese thank you you are so bubbly in your videos such a sweet disposition that’s always great.

      Hi Denise. Yes, you can use ranch if you’d like. Any cheese can be substituted. We prefer to use crumbly cheeses but you can use whatever cheese you like.

    Really like the Cobb salad and dressing. I make individual sized salads to bring for lunch at work.
    I made a larger batch of the dressing so I can just use a little each day.
    Does the dressing require refrigeration? I refrigerated it as I was only using a little each day and the consistency was like mud. Once it sits out for a while it becomes more liquified so I was wondering if it needed to be refrigerated at all?

      That’s a great idea to make lunch portions to-go! The dressing will do fine in the fridge for a few days.

      It’s the olive oil.. once refrigerated it solidifies.. try canola oil if you want to make a larger batch.

    I made this salad today for a girls getaway tomorrow. Poor thing. 😥😉 It never stood a chance. I must admit I ate pretty much the entire salad minus a lot of the chicken and bacon. My husband only likes the meats and dressing. I’m okay with that. Thanks for this delicious work of art.

    I have just seen this picture of your salad on a facebook group called Cooking and Baking with the claim that a 16yr old boy made it. It’s the second time that I have seen one of your pictures on there with claims that a young person made it. A couple of posters have commented that it is on your site. I don’t know why people do this. Keep up the good work, your recipes and videos are superb.

    I made this Cobb Salad for the family last night and it is another restaurant quality recipe from NK. My wife and two teens said they loved it and wanted it made again. The vinaigrette is outstanding and so delicious over the roasted chicken and salad. Rotesserie’s from the grocery are ok in a pinch, but I roasted a whole chicken coated in EVOO with Provence de France seasoning, salt, pepper, and butter tabs tucked under the skin, and my goodness Natasha’s Cobb shames Zaxby’s. And it’s low carb! If you choose your balsamic carefully.

    The nutrition value states the calories and other values PER SERVING. The recipe says it serves 4 people. Does this mean that I take the nutritional and MULTIPLY by four to determine the total calories and nutrion for the complete recipe? OR if I only made ¼ of the recipe, do I take the total calories and nutrional elements and DIVIDE by 4?

    I look forward to trying your version. I have the recipe from the Brown Derby and we love it, but yours sounds delicious too.
    The dressing is slightly different from yours but oh so good.

    I used a white balsamic in the dressing. It is a bit sweeter than the dark and also leaves the salad looking lovely.

The homemade dressing was honestly so good that I’m now inspired to put the extra effort into making bacon and egg to go into it next time! Thanks again for making such a yummy salad that even a lazy cook likes

    This was so yummy! I could keep eating and eating it. I don’t usually do dressing but this dressing was perfect. My husband even was like hey you’re eating your salad with dressing. Haha. He even said this is one of your best meals in a while. I said thank Natasha. We are doing gluenten and dairy free so it’s been interesting. But this was a meal that gives us hope that we can do this diet. I just had to hold the blue cheese but it was still so yummy.

      Thanks for your great feedback! To maximize the shelf life of leftover stuffing, refrigerate in covered airtight containers. When reheating stuffing, heat to a minimum internal temperature of 165 °F before serving. To further extend the shelf life of stuffing, freeze it; freeze in covered airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags.

    One quick tip (and maybe you already know this)…I just learned from Jacques Pepin that you can keep avocados from turning brown by dipping the peeled avocado in cold water. I still need to try this to “prove” it, but if Jacques says it, I tend to trust it. If you try it soon, please let me know how well (or not) it works.
