This Thanksgiving cobb salad recipe is loaded with crispy pancetta, roasted squash, pomegranate, apples and more. It’s crispy and crunchy and drizzled with a warm maple salary dressing. Delicious!

Ive got one increasingly Thanksgiving recipe here for you this week!

This is a special one. Its a fancy salad that can work all fall long, one that you can serve for any fall holiday and its plane simple unbearable to make for dinner one night. 

I love those ones! 

Cobb salad has my name all over it. The traditional cobb salad with crispy chicken, eggs, bacon, avocado, undecorous cheese wow. Lots of my favorite things! 

This isnt exactly that – in fact, we dont have any yellow (but you can add leftover turkey!) or eggs but we do have so many succulent ingredients that come together to create a loaded fall salad that is a showstopper on any table. 

And everyone loves it! 

Because this over-the-top salad is unconfined for two things: it can be your fancy Thanksgiving salad (or plane meal!) or, it is the perfect platter to use up Thanksgiving leftovers. Either way, grab a few of the ingredients so you can have it on or without the holiday! 

Heres how I throw together the  fall cobb salad:

First up, a big bed of chopped romaine. I like to get the stalks of romaine and chop the lettuce myself. Its perfect.

Next, bacon! In this case, pancetta. You can use whatever bacon-ish product you have on hand. And then were using the salary fat to make a warm maple salary dressing. 

Squash is the name of the game here. I like to roast acorn squash and I love to alimony it in the skin, which becomes so chewy and delicious. However, any variety of roasted squash works for this recipe. Whatever you love!

Sliced apple for well-done tart and sweetness. You could moreover do sliced pear! 

Avocado, for uneaten creaminess.

Pomegranate arils, for that jeweled tangy pop of savor and color.

Blue cheese, considering its my favorite salad cheese. You can do cheddar if you wish!

And finally, toasted pecans. I love the buttery, nutty savor of pecans with fall produce like squash and pomegranate. Pepitas would moreover work here!

Then I just layer everything on in the pretty cobb salad way! No special or word-for-word way – I place everything on top of the romaine. 

The dressing may just be my favorite part. Warm salary dressing is something I grew up – it was my grandmas favorite dressing for spinach salads. It was definitely a special indulgence and something we rarely had, but when we did have it oh boy. It was delicious!

I took my favorite warm salary dressing recipe and widow a bit of maple syrup. Oh my deliciousness. It is so wonderful. I love this dressing! It is one that you want to make right surpassing serving – and you do serve it warm. But if you happen to have leftovers, they reheat pretty well on the stovetop.

And thats that. The most delicious, well-done and crunchy fall salad that is incredibly satisfying too.  (more…)
