We had this at a ladies function at our church a few months ago and it was great! This is my friend and workout buddy Angie's recipe....
Southwest Chicken Salad Romaine
Heads of Lettuce 1-2 (depending on size)
2-4 Grilled Chicken Breast
3 Roma Tomatoes - chopped
1 Red, Orange and Yellow Bell Pepper - sliced or chopped
1/2 bunch Cilantro chopped (not too fine)
1/2 cup Shredded Parmesan cheese
1 can Black Beans - rinsed and drained
1 small bag Frozen Corn - thawedTortilla Strips - you can buy them or you can fry strips of flour or corn tortilla in oil
Southwestern Caesar Salad Dressing - Look for it at HEB/Grovery Store (you can also substitute with plain caesar dressing if you need to)
You can layer salad or toss all ingredients together just before serving. Tip--add romaine lettuce after tossing the other ingredients so that it will stay crisper.
She served this is a large clean bucket and it was so festive!
I hope you enjoy it! Its a great salad meal...one of those yummy salads with enough stuff it in so you feel like its a meal and not just rabbit food!
Heather,
ReplyDeleteWhen Patrick makes his tortillia soup we bake the tortillias with a little olive oil and chilli powder. They come out just as crunchy and they are better for you instead of frying them. You'll have to try it, you will be amazed!
