Cobb Salad: Cooking Through Cravings

July 8, 2020

I love everything about this cobb salad: the dressing, the flavors, and the hint of spice. I love how it makes me feel like a Kardashian with a never-ending bowl of salad.

Pineapple is in the marinade for the chicken and in the sweet chili sauce. It…
