Cobb Salad
Report
The Cobb Salad is a famous salad layered with delicious toppings. In this recipe, we're making the classic salad just as delicious, but also lighter, swapping out the cheese for creamy avocado and bacon with crispy baked apples. The salad is tossed with a simple homemade honey dijon dressing for the perfect sweetness to finish off this tasty salad!

Cobb Salad
- Make the apple chips. If you are using store-bought apple chips, you can skip this step. If you’d like to make them at home, follow this step by step guide to make apple chips in the air fryer or oven. I recommend the air fryer method because it’s much quicker and you only need a few apple chips for this recipe.
- Prepare the hard boiled eggs. Follow this guide to make perfect hard boiled eggs to top the salad. You can make the eggs up to 7 days in advance. Just be sure to keep them in their shells in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to make the salad, gently crack the egg and peel the shell from the hard boiled eggs. Dice up the eggs before adding them to the salad.
- Make the grilled chicken. Coat a chicken breast in 1 teaspoon olive oil, then in 1 tablespoon chicken seasoning. Grill for 8-10 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the grill, rest for 5 minutes, then dice up the chicken.
- Assemble the salad. Add spinach leaves to a large bowl, toss with the honey dijon dressing. Add the toppings to the salad in rows. Start with the diced avocado, then the diced grilled chicken, apple chips, hard boiled eggs and diced tomatoes.
Notes
- To meal prep this recipe, prepare the salad dressing, apple chips, hard boiled eggs and grilled chicken. Store the salad dressing, eggs and chicken in the refrigerator for up 5 days. Assemble the salad as instructed, when ready to eat.
- This recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free using the ingredients and recipes pictured and linked in this post.
- To make this recipe vegan, omit the chicken, or replace it with grilled tofu. Omit the hard boiled eggs, or replace them with scrambled tofu. Swap out the honey in the salad dressing with maple syrup.
