Vegetarian Cobb Salad
The Vegetarian Cobb Salad features butter lettuce combined with halved cherry tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, avocado slices, and crumbled blue cheese. A shallot vinaigrette made by blending shallot, mustard, white balsamic vinegar, and olive oil dresses the salad, giving it a tangy and smooth flavor. Toasted French baguette slices spread with blue cheese accompany the salad, adding a crunchy contrast to the fresh produce and creamy components. This combination creates a varied texture and balanced flavor profile, suitable for a light meal or side dish.

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.
