Ingredients
  • 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 tomato, seeded and diced
  • 1/2 cup sweet white frozen corn, thawed
  • 1/2 cup canned Black Beans, rinsed
  • 1 avocado, pitted and diced
  • 1/4 cup Cheddar or Jack Cheese, shredded
  • 3 tblsps chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)
  • 1/4 cup Creamy Ranch Dressing
  • 1 tsp taco seasoning or canned chipotles, pureed
  • Juice of one lime
  • 1 - 2 handfuls yellow corn tortilla chips, slightly crushed

Directions
  1. Toss together the first seven ingredients (lettuce thru cilantro) in a salad bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine dressing with taco seasoning and lime juice. Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Mix in tortilla chips just before serving so them remain a little crunchy.
  4. Add more dressing, if needed and adjust seasoning to taste.
  5. TIP: Add grilled chicken tenders or shrimp for added taste (and protein)
