This is just a quick overview of some of the steps involved in making the low carb cobb salad. For the recipe in detail, including exact measurements used at each step, scroll to the recipe card at the end of the post.
Step 1: Make the dressing
Add all dressing ingredients to a small bowl and combine thoroughly. Thin with water until the dressing reaches your desired consistency.
TIP: The dressing can be made up to 24 hours in advance. If you’re not using it right away, cover it and refrigerate it until it’s time to assemble the salad.
Step 2: Assemble the salad
Divide the romaine lettuce among the bowls and top with equal amounts of:
- bacon
- egg
- chicken breast
- avocado
- cucumber
- blue cheese
Then top with fresh chives and equal portions of dressing (the exact amount will vary depending on how much water you added to the dressing).
What is a good keto mayonnaise for ranch dressing?
If you want the healthiest keto cobb salad, you should opt for a brand of mayonnaise that isn’t filled with soy oil like many popular brands, such as Primal Kitchen. I buy mine from Thrive Market (aka the Costco of Whole Foods!). Read my Thrive Market review and get a free gift with your first order!
