Classic Cobb salad gets an update with some baked salmon in place of the traditional chicken and bacon. Feel free to swap the cooked salmon for smoked salmon (hot or cold) for an easy, no-cook meal.

Ingredients

Garlic Salmon

  • 12 ounces salmon 2, 6 ounce filets with or without skin
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • salt and pepper to taste

Salad

  • 4 cups Romaine chopped
  • 1/2 avocado sliced
  • 2 eggs quartered
  • 10 cherry tomatoes omit for nightshade-free
  • 1/4 cup red onion diced, or pickled red onion
  • 1/4 cup feta crumbled, omit for dairy-free
  • 3 tablespoons parsley minced

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic minced, optional
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon monk fruit golden
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and then rub with a bit of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Lay the salmon on the prepared sheet and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake at 200ºF for 15-30 minutes, or until the fish is just beginning to flake, or registers 120ºF inside (this will vary depending on the thickness of your salmon). It will have a more raw appearance but be cooked at this point.
  • While the fish bakes, prepare the salad and dressing. Transfer lettuce to a large bowl, top with remaining salad ingredients and set aside.
  • Whisk dressing ingredients together and set aside.
  • When salmon is cooked, flake and lay on top of the salad. Drizzle whole salad with dressing, toss, and serve.
