Cobb Salad

Plenty of protein from chicken, bacon, and hard boiled eggs atop a mixture of leafy greens, tomato, avocado, and fresh herbs get a lift from a tangy red wine vinaigrette. Feel free to use whatever dressing you like. Though not a traditional Cobb salad dressing, ranch makes a delicious variation.
