The Supreme Cobb Club Sandwich

A delicious mix of the classic Cobb salad and the Club sandwich. This is a great addition to a lunch buffet or any celebration or special occasion.

The enjoyable part of eating a Supreme Cobb Club sandwich is the flavor of the crispy bacon and the bleu cheese spread combined on toasted bread. Following this savory treat is the essence of the sweet red onion, the coolness of the ripe tomatoes, and crisp romaine lettuce. This sandwich is made for a delectable reminiscence of the Traditional Cobb salad and the Classic Club sandwich.

With any meal, it takes a little time and effort to prepare the ingredients and assemble this delicious sandwich. With these simple and fresh ingredients, the cook will want to make this sandwich as a snack or as a main course. The cook can serve this sandwich with a variety of accompanying side dishes or enjoy it on its own with a nice cold drink.

Fresh Cobb Club Ingredients

4 Large hard-boiled eggs

3/4 cup bottled bleu cheese, chunky salad dressing

12 slices whole grain white or wheat bread, toasted

12 slices crispy bacon, cooked and well-drained

2 medium Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced

1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced

4 romaine lettuce leaves, shredded

Salt and pepper

Navel Orange cut in wedges (optional)

Easy-to-Follow Directions

In a small bowl, mash hard-boiled eggs with 1/4 cup of the bleu cheese dressing.

Season to taste with salt and pepper, then set aside.

Spread eight of the toasted bread slices with salad dressing or mayonnaise.

Arrange crispy bacon on four of the toasted bread slices; top with sliced Roma tomato.

Spread the four remaining plain toasted bread slices with egg mixture; top with red onion slices and lettuce.

Place one egg-topped toast on top of each bacon-topped toast.

Top with remaining dressing-spread toast slices, spread side down.

Optional: Secure the sandwiches with wooden or plastic toothpicks; garnish the plate with an orange wedge. Cut each sandwich in half or in quarters.

Makes 4 sandwiches

This sandwich should be enjoyable in any setting, whether as an entrée or as a snack food at a party. This is an easy and delicious food to have for lunch but also it can fit in as a delightful afternoon treat or dinner in the evening if the cook is out of time to prepare a larger meal. A Cobb Club sandwich is nice when enjoyed with a delicious potato salad or chips, and a side of baked beans.

Party Tray

The party planner can double the recipe and slice the sandwich into quarter-sized finger sandwiches. Secure the quarter of a sandwich with a decorative wooden or plastic toothpick and pile them up on a service platter, making 32 portions. Garnish the platter with some fresh orange wedges or some cherry tomatoes.

As an individual meal package, the party planner could wrap half a sandwich with waxed paper, leaving a seam across the top of the sandwich. Then the party planner can assemble the package with three baby carrots tucked under the seam sticking out for a complement.
