How to Make Sheet Pan Cobb Salad
This is a visual walk through, the full steps for this sheet pan cobb salad recipe are in the printable recipe card below.
The first step to this salad is to chop up the greens and lay them out on a large sheet pan. Now, you can use any type of lettuce or blend of lettuce you would like.
Next you will begin creating rows of the toppings you would like. We did diced chicken, tomatoes, feta cheese, etc. Feel free to pile on all the types of items you want.
Then drizzle on dressing and allow your family or friends dish up the salads and enjoy.
Can I Make This Salad In Advance
Go right ahead and assemble the salad on the sheet pan, except for the dressing. Then cover tightly and store in the fridge up to 24 hours in advance. Then right before serving, drizzle with dressing, or have dressings on the side.
You will find the tomatoes might release some juices but it will still be tasty and delicious.
Can I Swap Out The Chicken
You can use chopped up ham, turkey, sliced steak, or even create a meatless salad if you would like. Feel free to adjust and create a dish that fits your preference.
