What is a Cobb Salad?
A Cobb salad is an American garden salad typically made with tomato, bacon, chicken, hard-boiled eggs, avocado, chives, and blue cheese. The toppings are usually lined up in neat rows over a bed of lettuce. It’s traditionally served with a vinaigrette dressing. The salad originated in California at the Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant in the 1930s. There are a variety of ingredients that a Cobb salad can have. I like to pick and choose what I put on it based on what I’m craving that day.
What You Will Need:
- Shaved Brussels Sprouts – I buy pre-shaved Brussels sprouts at the grocery store to save time. You can also buy fresh, whole Brussels sprouts and shave them using a mandolin.
- Toppings of your choice – Traditional Cobb salad topping are tomato, cucumbers, bacon, chicken, hard-boiled eggs, avocado, chives, and blue cheese.
- Dressing of your choice – The original salad dressing used for the Cobb salad was French dressing, but this salad is also known to be made with red wine vinaigrette. Personally, I like Ranch dressing on my Cobb salad creations, but shaved Brussel sprouts with balsamic is a great combination as well.
Let’s Make This Shaved Brussels Sprout Cobb Salad!
Like most salads, this Cobb salad is simple and quick to make. You can buy Brussels sprouts that have already been shaved to save time. If you buy fresh Brussels sprouts, you can shave them thin using a mandolin. To make this sprout salad recipe, first, get a big bowl and fill it with the shaved Brussels sprouts.
Then, decide what toppings you want to add to your salad. Cook the ingredients that must be cooked, such as: chicken, bacon, and hard-boiled egg. Next, chop the vegetables: cucumber, tomato, and scallions. Line each of the ingredients in a straight line across the bowl on top of the shaved Brussels sprouts.

Love cabbage and eat it both raw and cooked. Brussels sprouts are like little baby cabbage, but never thought of eating them as a salad 🥗. I dont know, but i will give it a try. Your salad looks appealing.
I love this! I am a huge cobb salad fan and adding the cabbage and brussels sprouts to the salad gives it such a nice crunch and is able to hold up to the heavy toppings. This is definitely a winter salad that will be on my lunch menu! Thanks for the great recipe!
I love cobb salad! But I am not too sure about the Brussel sprouts. Not a big fan of those but I am willing to give it a try again! Sounds like a great dinner option!
