I scaled this down to feed two of us. A really great salad. First time trying potatoes this way and the flavor was excellent. I used feta cheese instead of blue and didnt use bacon, but I did have some ham I wanted to use up and it worked out great. I put it on a bed of romaine and iceburg lettuce, and this made for a very filling salad. Such a nice colorful salad too, I love cobb salads for this reason. Thanks for sharing SaraBeth
