Keto Cobb Salad with Ranch Dressing Using Greek Yogurt

Cobb salad is traditionally served with a vinaigrette dressing. However, in making this keto version of a cobb salad, I decided to put together a homemade ranch dressing using Greek yogurt. I think you'll love how those flavors work together.

There are a number of reasons I love this Keto Cobb Salad and why I think you will, too. A biggie is this kind of salad is perfect for using up leftovers from other meals. For instance, this salad includes sliced hard boiled eggs as well as cooked bacon. Where did I get those ingredients? They were leftovers from making air fryer bacon as well as boiled eggs in the air fryer.

Ingredients

Ranch Dressing

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped
1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Pinch cayenne pepper
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup buttermilk

Cobb Salad

1 large head Romaine lettuce washed and chopped
4 strips thick-cut bacon cooked crispy
4 hard boiled eggs sliced
3/4 pound rotisserie chicken breast sliced
1 large avocado sliced
1 medium cucumber peeled and cut into half-rounds
3 ounces blue cheese
1 tablespoon fresh chives chopped
1 large lime cut into 8 wedges

Instructions

To prepare the ranch dressing, combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
To prepare the salad, make everything in one large bowl or, since this recipe has four servings, divide the Romaine lettuce among four serving bowls. Then top each bowl with equal amounts of bacon, hard boiled egg, chicken breast, avocado, cucumber and blue cheese. Top with the fresh chives and serve immediately with the ranch dressing and fresh lime wedges on the side. Enjoy!

Notes

The macros for this recipe is probably higher than you're used to for a keto recipe. However, the nutritional information for this cobb salad includes the dressing, which has some higher carb ingredients, such as buttermilk. If you're concerned about the net carbs, cut back on the amount of dressing you use.

If you don't have Worcestershire sauce for making the dressing, you can use one of these Worcestershire sauce substitutes.
