Panera Bread Green Goddess Cobb Salad
Description
Panera Bread Green Goddess Cobb Salad combines a mixture of greens—including arugula, romaine, kale, and radicchio—with protein and creamy elements. Grilled chicken provides a lean, smoky flavor, while crispy bacon adds a crunchy, salty contrast. Avocado contributes creaminess and healthy fats, complemented by fresh tomato and crumbly feta cheese. Hard-boiled eggs add richness and texture.
Pickled red onions bring acidity and a slight sweetness, elevating the salad's complexity. The homemade Green Goddess dressing blends mayonnaise with fresh herbs and watercress for an herbal, bright finish that ties the salad together. This salad works well as a hearty lunch or light dinner option.
The pickled onions are quick to prepare by soaking thinly sliced red onions in a mixture of white vinegar, sugar, salt, and warm water for about 30 minutes. The dressing can be stored refrigerated for up to one week allowing advance preparation. Adjust the amount of dressing to taste when serving.

Instructions
Pickled Onions
- Slice onions as thin as possible, I like to use the 1/8 inch setting on my mandolin. Place the onions in a glass far. In a small bowl combine white vinegar, sugar, salt, and warm water. Stir until the sugar and salt are dissolved. These should rest about 30 minutes for using.
Green Goddess Salad Dressing
- Place all of the dressing ingredients in the bowl of a blender or food processor and blend for about 30-45 seconds, or until the salad dressing is mostly smooth and creamy.
Salad Assembly
- Place the salad in the bottom of a large salad bowl. Thinly slice the chicken breast, and place onto the lettuce. Add bacon, chopped avocado, chopped tomatoes, feta cheese, hard-boiled egg halves, and pickled onions. Drizzle over as much salad dressing as desired. Remaining salad dressing can be stored in an air-tight container for 1 week.
Notes
- Omit pickled onions to reduce carbohydrates if desired.
- Prepare the Green Goddess dressing ahead and refrigerate for up to a week.
- Thinly slicing onions and allowing them to soak enhances their tang and mellows sharpness.
