Garden Cobb Salad image

This sensational salad is my favorite for a ladies' lunch...but men and kids eat it up, too. Presenting it in a flowerpot emphasizes its garden-fresh goodness. Be prepared to pot up more fixings when guests come back for seconds. -Christine Panzarella, Buena Park, California

I thought this salad was just okay. The dressing was a little too tangy for my taste and the grilled chicken was a bit dry.
