    MEXICAN CHOPPED SALAD WITH HONEY-LIME DR


    Source of Recipe


    Epicurous

    Recipe Introduction


    Tortillas aren't the only depository for beans, corn and tomatoes. Let romaine lettuce do the job. Feta cheese supplies a dose of calcium and major flavor. And the honey-lime dressing adds just the right touch of tangy sweetness.
