Shrimp Cobb Salad with Bacon Dressing Recipe

Delicious and satisfying, this colorful twist on the Cobb salad hits all the right notes for being fresh, nutritious, and indulgent. A Cobb salad isn't complete without bacon, but in this recipe, we went a step further and added extra bacon (and drippings) to the bright and tangy vinaigrette. A good choice for a party menu, many of the components can be prepped up to a day ahead, such as the hard-boiled eggs and the poached or steamed shrimp. You can easily build your own Cobb salad by substituting diced chicken or ham for shrimp and trying crumbled feta instead of blue cheese.
