Club Salad
This easy club salad recipe is a delicious twist on the favorite club sandwich. Loaded with flavor, protein, and fresh veggies, it will be quick to become a favorite!
My eyes always gravitate to a classic club on a sandwich menu. In fact, the “Clubbie,” a retired sandwich from Potbelly Sandwich Shop, is an obsession of mine. (*Secret: They’ll still make it for you if you ask.) While I was having my weekly Clubbie yesterday, I had the thought of making it into a salad! WHAM…yummy overload!
