For this salad recipe, i’ll split the ingredients and instructions into two parts, the salad recipe and the keto friendly ranch dressing.
For the Keto Ranch Dressing Recipe
If you have the time, I recommend making the ranch dressing the night before, and all the flavors will have a chance to develop.
Ranch Dressing Ingredients
½ c. Avocado mayonnaise (or regular mayonnaise)
¼ c. Greek yogurt
1½ T. fresh chives, chopped
1 T. fresh dill, chopped
1 T. fresh parsley, chopped
¼ t. smoked paprika
½ t. garlic powder
½ t. onion powder
Pinch cayenne pepper
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
1 t. Worcestershire sauce
¼ c. buttermilk
Cobb Salad Ingredients
1 large head Romaine lettuce, washed and chopped
4 strips thick-cut bacon, cooked crispy
4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
¾ lbs. rotisserie chicken breast, sliced
1 large avocado, sliced
1 medium cucumber, peeled and cut into half-rounds
3 oz. blue cheese
1 T. fresh chives, chopped
1 large lime, cut into 8 wedges
Instructions
I suggest you start with the ranch dressing first.
Combine all the dressing ingredients into a large bowl and whisk together well. Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired.
Cover the dressing and put in the fridge to cool.
Next, prepare the salad by splitting the Romaine lettuce amongst 4 bowls. Top each lettuce bowl with an even amount of toppings.
We used bacon, boiled eggs, chicken breast, avocado, cucumber and blue cheese.
Top with freshly chopped chives and serve with a generous amount of ranch dressing and a bit of lime.
