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. ;) Ingredients:
8 cups shredded iceberg lettuce, and |
romaine lettuce |
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved |
1/2 red onions or 1/2 shallot, sliced thin |
1 cucumber, sliced |
1 cup sliced black olives |
1 avocado, peeled and sliced |
1 cup broken tortilla chips |
1 lime, juice of |
1 tablespoon salsa |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped |
1/4 cup olive oil |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Place the lettuce, tomato, onion, olives and cucumber in a large salad bowl.
2. Mix dressing: In a bottle, place olive oil, lime juice, salsa and cilantro. Shake vigorously until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toss salad with the dressing. At the last minute, toss in the tortilla chips.
4. Add Avocado as garnish if desired.
