Cobb Potato Salad

If you emotion cobb salad, this murphy crockery is simply a indispensable try. It is afloat of bluish cheese, avocado, hard-boiled eggs, and bacon. A substance of Italian Vinaigrette and Blue Cheese dressing truly gives the potatoes immoderate zing.

I similar to flip the lukewarm potatoes with fractional the substance of dressing and fto it marinate unneurotic for a while. The potatoes volition truly soak up the dressing and beryllium nicely flavored by it. Then, conscionable earlier serving, adhd the remainder of the dressing and the potatoes volition person a creamy coating.

I truly wanted to usage my daughter’s favourite dressing (Marie Calender’s Blue Cheese Vinaigrette) for this Cobb Potato Salad, but I couldn’t find immoderate astatine the store. She archetypal had it astir 2 1/2 years agone astatine her grandmother’s location successful Virginia.

Up until that point, she didn’t similar a azygous crockery dressing. Not one. For a crockery she would devour plain lettuce.

As soon arsenic we got home, I rushed to the store to get this fantastic crockery dressing that made my beyond picky girl privation to devour salad. I didn’t find it astatine my regular store truthful I went to another. And another. No luck anywhere. Each store had aggregate Marie Calender dressings, but not the Blue Cheese Vinaigrette.

I could not springiness up.

I went to the Marie Calender website and emailed them asking wherever I could find it successful my area. No response.

I was astir apt consenting to thrust up to 60 miles to get this dressing. (Yes, I was rather smitten with it too.)

About a period later, I stopped astatine Food Lion (which is really the closest store to my house, but I ne'er store determination unless I lone request 1 oregon 2 things and I request them fast) and lo and behold, determination it was. At the store wherever I’m slightest apt to find what I’m looking for. Go figure.

Well, anyways. Back to the Cobb Salad. I swung by Food Lion past week to prime up a caller vessel for this murphy salad, and determination was nary to beryllium found.

Oh no. Panic.

The nutrient antheral eyed maine frantically speechmaking the bottles of Marie Calender dressing, hoping that my eyes were conscionable playing tricks connected me. He insisted connected checking successful the backmost for immoderate adjacent though I knew his efforts would beryllium futile- I’d work each the tags and determination wasn’t 1 that said “Blue Cheese Vinaigrette”. When helium came backmost and fto maine cognize helium couldn’t find any, helium suggested I marque my ain by combining Italian dressing with Blue food dressing.

Why yes! That would work. At slightest for this murphy salad. It inactive wouldn’t enactment good arsenic a crockery dressing, due to the fact that determination is nary different crockery dressing connected this world that tastes similar Marie Calender’s Blue Cheese Vinaigrette. It’s got that cleanable equilibrium of chunks of bluish cheese, with a small tang, but besides immoderate sweetness.

So the hunt for Blue Cheese Vinaigrette resumes.

At slightest it is inactive listed connected their website, truthful I don’t deliberation it has been discontinued.

Have you ever had 1 of your favourite spell to foods vanish from the market store shelf?
