  This fun and festive recipe turns the classic Cobb into a California-inspired vegetarian salad. Instead of chicken, we sprinkle in some nutritionally-dense chickpeas. Instead of bacon, we boost the salad dressing with a little smoky paprika. Avocado, blue cheese, hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, red onion, and corn make up the rest of the tantalizing toppings.
