- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the salad:

- 2 hard-boiled eggs

- 1/2 cup crumbled Roquefort or Blue cheese (about 2 ounces)
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together all of the dressing ingredients and set aside.
Slice the ham into 1/2-inch strips. Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat over a medium-high heat. Add the ham to the skillet and cook over stirring frequently, until the ham is warmed through and crisped, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Remove and discard the yolk from 1 of the hard boiled eggs. Chop the remaining egg white and whole egg and set aside.

I made this for a pot luck dinner recently and everyone absolutely loved it. The dressing is so fresh and tasty. I added more garlic.

If I could give this 10 stars, I would! It tastes just like a full-fat, full-calorie cobb salad, and it's easy to make. I doubled the amount of dressing, and I had it for dinner and the next day for lunch, and it was just as good the next day. Do use the watercress; it adds something to complete the salad that I think would be missing with romaine alone. Fantastic recipe that I will definitely make again!
