V'S MEXICAN SALAD

V's Mexican Salad image

This salad is so refreshingly easy to make and goes great with any Mexican or Carribean dish. When my husband said he was making Carne Asada on the grill .... I got busy and made this salad to compliment the flavors. The lime based dressing is very tasty and the added chips and avocado are the main attraction. ;)
