What’s for dinner he asked. You are getting a salad. WHAT? Is that all? He discovered it was all he needed and raved how good it was. This recipe only takes minutes to prepare and serve.

We love Mexican food at my house. However, the typical sides of beans & rice sometimes left us feeling some guilt from eating so few vegetables with dinner. This side incorporates lots of veggies & tons of Mexican flavor. Without all the guilt. If you are really watching your waist try reduced fat sour cream or plain yogurt.

Perfect for a easy lite dinner!

Excellent side for burritos or enchiladas!

I love eating salads. There's a small restaurant near my workplace and I often go there for lunch.This salad is for 1 serving, basically a main course. I used steamed chicken but a grilled chicken will be perfect too. The dried raisins give some sweetness to this salad. Let me know if you tried it and how you make it your own.

I tried this for the first time a couple years ago and loved it.

My sister first made this salad for my friend Lynda and I when we were in our teens. We both loved it so much that she had to double the recipe for us the next time! I think that it was taken from my mom's Madame Benoit cookbook, which has been lost over the years. It has been modified slightly from the original recipe.

This is one of my family's favorite meals. My husband and children ask me to make this at least once a week. I like that the meat is versatile as well. You can use steak, chicken, ground meat. Really any meat you want to.

verry tasty :convertible
