    Cobb Egg Salad - loaded with all the flavors of cobb salad and delicious in a sandwich or all on its own! Perfect for lunch with friends or a picnic at the park, this recipe takes egg salad to a whole new level!

    Cobb Egg Salad is loaded with all the flavors of cobb salad and is delicious in a sandwich or all on its own! Perfect for lunch with friends or a picnic at the park, this recipe takes egg salad to a whole new level!

    Have I ever told you about myself growing up, and how much I LOVED school? It's honestly a little hard to believe, looking back, just how much I loved it, but school was totally my element. My wheelhouse. My stomping ground. I'm sure it had something to do with being the third child, and seeing my older sisters in school, and being nothing but excited to start carrying my own real backpack and having my own real homework and learning my own real things....(as opposed to all the pretend school I had played at home)....

    But whatever the reason, school was just.my.thing. And I was good at it! And from time to time, I got rewarded for it. I'll never forget, in second grade, how we earned points in class toward bigger rewards. And how, every single time I was ready to "cash in" my points, I chose the exact same thing: lunch in the classroom with my teacher. Now, I know you may be wondering what the big deal was about having lunch in the classroom with your teacher. Well, let me tell you, it was a big deal! Because not only did we get to eat with her, but SHE MADE OUR LUNCH FOR US!  And better yet? She took special requests.

    I'm guessing most other kids in my class didn't choose lunch with the teacher as their prize. No, they were probably more likely to choose an "actual" prize from the treasure box. And I'm guessing those that did typically requested something simple like pb&j or ham & cheese. But me? I wanted something different. Something memorable. I chose egg salad.

     I have to laugh, looking back, at the thought of my teacher going through all the trouble of boiling and peeling eggs, and making them into egg salad (time after time, I might add) just for my sandwich. Oh, to be a kid. But seriously, who can blame me? Egg salad is delicious! One of my favorites to this day! Especially when it's all jazzed up like this Cobb Egg Salad, loaded with bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese, blue cheese, and ranch dressing. It packs a serious flavor punch and is *perfect* for summer lunches, picnics, or parties. And best of all? It's a choice you can feel good about. And even better about when you use Phil's Fresh Eggs.

    Have you heard of Phil's Fresh Eggs? It's a family run, second generation, cage-free egg production facility based in Forreston, Illinois, committed to producing and selling humanely raised eggs. I love their eggs, not just because they come from healthy, happy chickens, but because they taste better! Plain and simple. Which makes for better tasting Cobb Egg Salad. Each and every time.

          2 tsp dry ranch dressing mix. This is super tasty and flavorful. I reduced the mayo to 1/4c and added 2 Tbsp ranch dressing instead of all mayo for an added ranch kick!

      School was totally my element when I was a kid, too, so I feel you. And that's amazing that your teacher made lunch for y'all! Seriously. I love that!

      Cobb Salad is one of my all-time favorite salads. And Egg Salad is a favorite sandwich of mine. I seriously cannot wait to try this combination because I know it's going to be stellar!

      I loved school too - but never got to eat lunch with my teachers!! To be honest, I was the kid who would have picked something from the treasure box!! 😀 How fun for you, though!! And egg salad?! That totally makes me laugh - I bet she remembers you and that request to this day!! LOL. This is a great way to jazz up egg salad - I can't wait to try it!

      I'm looking for ideas for lunch at work so it has to be something that can last about 8 hours in a lunchbox with ice packs. Will this hold up? It looks soooo good!

      By adding spam instead of bacon would that make it not keto?

      I love egg salad. A friend in elementary school always brought them and they looked so good.. I was never allowed because my grandmother said mayo had to be refrigerated ????

      Absolutely delicious egg salad recipe!!! I was looking in my fridge for something to make, I had to use up leftover Easter eggs, and some bacon that’s been in there a couple of days, I had blue cheese, so I searched an egg salad recipe and this one came up!! Yummm!! I didn’t add tomato or arugula because I didn’t have them on hand, but it was still amazing!

      I was looking for work lunch recipes and thankfully found this one! I found a recipe for ranch seasoning seasoning (I live in France and it doesnt exist here) and made my own. I cant eat tomatoes and Also didn't have blue cheese so I used parmesan. Had it for lunch today using lettuce hearts as little boats. DELICIOUS! Thanks so much <3
