Instructions
Add bacon to a cold pan then turn the heat to medium. Cook until it starts to release the fat, then flip on the other side, about 6-7 minutes in total, to get it nice and crispy. Set aside on a paper towel to drain the excess fat.
In the same heated skillet add chicken or turkey, season with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and no longer pink on the inside (the internal temperature should reach 165F/75C). Set aside on a board and let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice or chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, add the lettuce, then top with turkey, crumbled bacon, eggs, tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado. Sprinkle with almond flakes, then drizzle olive oil and vinegar.
Season with salt and pepper to your taste and gently toss to combine.

Notes
Please read the Tips & Tricks before making this easy turkey Cobb salad recipe. Below is just a summary:
I have removed the cheese in this turkey Cobb salad recipe to make it within Whole30's rules. Instead of cheese, I added almond flakes. If you don't mind the Whole30 diet, you can add the cheese back.
You can replace the veggies with your favorites like bell peppers, onions, shredded carrots etc.
Instead of turkey, you can make this Cobb salad with chicken.
