Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove (minced)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
8 cups lettuce
2 chicken breasts (cooked)
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can black beans (I like the the jalepeno black beans or the cumin ones by Kunars)
1 cup shredded cheese
red onion, green pepper, avocado, black olives, etc

Steps:

  • Combine vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl & mix well (or you can toss them all in a food processor & blend.).
  • Layer salad ingredients, & top with vinaigrette.
  • Enjoy!
  • (To make lighter, you can reduce oil to 1 T, and skip the cheese!).
