Vegetarian Cobb Salad
Description
The Vegetarian Cobb Salad assembles fresh butter lettuce and juicy halved cherry tomatoes as the base. Hard-boiled eggs, sliced avocado, and crumbly blue cheese are placed atop, offering a mix of protein, creaminess, and sharpness. The shallot vinaigrette, made by pureeing shallot, mustard, white balsamic vinegar, and olive oil into a smooth and well-seasoned dressing, adds a subtle pungent tang without overwhelming the salad. The blue cheese spread on toasted baguette slices introduces a crunchy, savory element alongside the crisp salad.
The salad is gently tossed with a few tablespoons of the vinaigrette, with an extra drizzle over the egg for bite. This preparation highlights the individual ingredients while providing cohesion through the dressing. The vinaigrette can be made in advance and refrigerated, maintaining flavor and convenience.

Instructions
VEGETARIAN COBB SALAD
- In a large salad bowl, place the tomatoes and the butter lettuce. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of shallot vinaigrette and mix gently well.
- Place the salad on a serving plate and add the hardboiled egg, avocado slices and the crumble blue cheese. Add a touch of the vinaigrette in top of the egg.
- Spread some of the blue cheese on the toasted French baguette and serve alongside.
SHALLOT VINAIGRETTE
- Place all the ingredients in a blender and puree until all the shallot is gone. Taste and adjust the seasoning. If too thick or too pungent (shallot can be quite strong) add more oil to reach the wanted consistency and flavor.
- This will make up to a cup of shallot vinaigrette. Can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
