While I enjoy me a good salad, I enjoy me a good burger more. So I decided for my Burger Month submission (here is mine from last year…we still make all the time) that I would combine my favorite salad and a burger. Enter the Cobb Salad Burger. I thought about making it a chicken burger to make it slightly more authentic…except, I hate chicken burgers. 🙂
As for the burger, I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
Burger Month is giving away quite few fun giveaways so be to enter!

Purée the ingredients to make a smooth dressing and season with salt and pepper.
To assemble:

I love making chorizo burgers with a mix of chorizo and beef!
Kristen says
I’m kinda boring in my burger creations (mostly because my husband’s the cook, and I’m the baker), but I do so love the Cabot extra sharp white cheddar, with a medium-well burger, and a pretzel bun. Yum!
Rosa says
Your burger looks extremely mouthwatering!
Cheers,
Rosa

It’s one I found on the Internet, from Ezra Pound Cake, called “Rattlesnake Slider”. Loved it then, loved it since, love it still.

I do love a good Cobb salad… this may have to fall into the dinner lineup soon.
Stephanie K. says
I haven’t actually tried one myself yet, but my dad called and mentioned that he was making burgers and adding bacon in when he grinds the meat. YES. Makes me wish I didn’t live 500 miles from home 😉
Alice says

I love it when you turn healthier things into delicious less healthy things such as this burger. Burgers always win over salads.

A couple of years ago I was on a stuffed burger kick, the best creation was beef burger with crumbled bacon mixed in, stuffed with a slice of sharp cheddar topped with caramelized onions and barbecue sauce. Man… now I’m starving!
