Easy Chicken Cobb Mason Jar Salad
A make-ahead Chicken Cobb salad layered in mason jars with garlic-seasoned chicken, turkey bacon, avocado, cucumber, tomatoes, goat cheese and romaine.
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked chicken diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 slices turkey bacon cooked and crumbled

- 1/2 cup goat cheese crumbled (or blue cheese)
- 3 cups romaine lettuce chopped
- 1/4 cup honey mustard dressing
Instructions
- Season the chicken. Toss the chicken with the garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Sear. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken 2 to 3 minutes, until lightly golden. Let cool.

Notes
Layering in this order keeps the salad from getting soggy.
