Caribbean Cobb Salad

This is based on my favorite salad from Macy’s Marketplace in downtown Minneapolis. They don’t have it often, so I had to create an “at home” version. Macadamia nuts can be chopped and sprinkled over salad if preferred (I like them whole). I sometimes use a citrus-based vinaigrette in place of the poppy seed dressing.
