The original Cobb salad was made famous by Hollywood's Brown Derby
Restaurant in the 1930's.
* avocado: peel, pit, dice and toss with one tablespoon lemon juice.
Spread lettuce in a large wide salad bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together
vinegar, garlic powder, pepper, chives and oil. Season to taste with salt.
Pour dressing over lettuce and toss to mix, then spread out in a even layer
in bowl. On top of lettuce, place tomato, chicken, avocado, bacon, and
eggs, arranging each ingredient in a separate wedge-shaped section. Place
cheese in center. Garnish with watercress sprigs if desired. Toss salad at
the table. NOTE: can substitute turkey, shrimp or crabmeat for the chicken.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
