Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups iceberg lettuce torn
  • 2 medium tomatoes chopped
  • 1 medium ripe avocado peeled and chopped
  • 3/4 cup fully cooked ham diced
  • 2 hard-boiled large eggs chopped
  • 3/4 cup cooked turkey diced
  • 1-1/4 cups fresh mushrooms sliced

Instructions
 

  • Begin by placing the crisp, torn lettuce on a large platter or in a spacious serving bowl, creating an even bed for the remaining ingredients.
  • Carefully arrange the remaining components of the salad in neat rows or sections atop the lettuce, ensuring each ingredient is visually distinct. This allows for an attractive presentation and lets diners customize their salad experience.
  • When ready to serve, offer the Cobb salad with your preferred dressing on the side, allowing each person to drizzle it over their portion to their liking.
  • For an extra touch of flavor and presentation, consider garnishing the salad with sliced ripe olives and fresh lemon wedges, if desired.
