Cobb Salad

"I travel frequently and often have Cobb Salads when I do - on planes, in restaurants, hotels and even from grocery stores.

Any way you decide to make this salad with whatever dressing, it will always be a hit. Thanks so much Mr. Bill!"

"Delicious salad!! I usually don't like vegetables or salad, but I ate this salad every day for lunch until it was gone. Will def. make again. UPDATE: I always buy rotisserie chicken and crumbled go..." See morergonzola cheese from the grocery store so that I can put this salad together quickly. I also use home-made ranch dressing II (from this site) and it makes this salad even better."
