But now, Melissa has blessed us with a recipe that, along with her Green Goddess Salad, is our new fave. She takes the classic Cobb salad and turns it on its head by subbing romaine for kale and adding a homemade miso dressing that beats bottled big time. Not only that, she adds crazy crunch with homemade (and super easy to make) crispy fried shallots.
