BENEFITS OF COBB SALAD
You get plenty of protein, healthy fats, fiber, and vitamins all in one bowl. Cobb salad originates from southern California dating back to the 30s, and I think it definitely says something that it has stuck around so popularly since that time. I often see it on restaurant menus, and it’s one of my staples at home.
