The usual Cobb salad uses chicken and hard-boiled eggs, which is my own personal preference. I saw this shrimp version online and it occurred to me that many shrimp lovers would appreciate this.

How To Make shrimp cobb salad

Step 1

Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan; cut in half crosswise. Wipe pan clean with paper towels; increase heat to medium-high. Sprinkle shrimp with paprika and pepper. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add shrimp to pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until done. Sprinkle with half the salt; toss to coat.

Step 2

While the shrimp cooks, combine remaining 1/8 tsp. salt, juice, oil, and mustard in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add lettuce; toss to coat.
Step 3

Arrange about 1 1/2 cups lettuce mixture on each of 4 plates. Top each serving with about 6 shrimp, 1/2 cup tomatoes, 1/4 cup carrot, 1/4 cup corn, 2 avocado wedges, and 2 bacon pieces.
