Julie's Mexican Salad Inspiration

This is a layer salad. Just add the ingredients as listed and then toss at the table. I tend to change things up based on the ingredients I have in the house so the ingredients can vary. I use whatever lettuce, cheese, and beans I happen to have on hand. I could eat this salad every day and not get tired of it! You may want to reserve some of the dressing for individuals to add as desired.

Ingredients :

• Salad:
• 1 head lettuce, chopped
• 1 (10 ounce) can corn, drained
• 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 large tomato, chopped
• 2 green onions, chopped
• ¼ cup chopped cilantro
• ¼ cup diced green bell pepper
• 1 avocado, sliced
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• ½ cup crushed tortilla chips
• Dressing:
• ½ cup salsa
• ¼ cup ranch-style salad dressing

Directions :

1. Layer lettuce, corn, black beans, tomato, green onions, cilantro, green bell pepper, avocado, Cheddar cheese, and tortilla chips, in this order, in a serving bowl.
2. Stir ranch-style dressing and salsa together in a bowl; pour over salad.
