Mexicana Salad!

Mexican- Salad! Tonight I played with a color , a simple dish but a good one! & it is Gluenten free. It is so simple and you can be as creative as you would like!

Mexicana ensalada..

1 package of organic spring mix lettuce
1 chicken breast around 6 ounce( grilled, diced/chopped or you can chop up and pan fry)
1- 1/2 can of corn
1- small hot house organic tomato.
1/2 - red onion
black olives as many as you like or not.
1/2 of an Avacado sliced
1/2 diced Bell Pepper
26 sprits of Italian fat free dressing
1/2 can of black beans
2 - Tablespoons of fat free sour cream
2 Tablespoons of Salsa
1- slice jalepeno
1- Corn Tortilla ( sliced into strips and then placed in the oven to get it crispy- Spray a little pam on it, garlic powder and salt toss and top!)
1-wedge of lime to spritz!

1/2 - cup of Cheese( or vegan cheese) if you like( I did not use here) the extra fat is not needed.

you can change the dressing to ranch, full italian, balsamic anything you like( I tend to love the newman's lime as well!
 
Enjoy! I love to play with Mexican salads because you are able to use Tofu, Chicken, Beef you like and Fish or Pork anything is possible, you can make them as low-fat or high fat as you like and pick and choose your flavors and add fruit and or numerous veggies!!!!
