Recipe Introduction


MEXICAN CHOPPED SALAD WITH HONEY-LIME DRESSING is the full title of this recipe.

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. Buen provecho!




List of Ingredients




Salad
2 1/2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 can (15.5 oz) black beans, rinsed and well drained
3/4 cup chopped seeded tomato
3/4 cup chopped peeled jicama
3/4 cup fresh corn kernels, uncooked (or frozen or canned)
3/4 cup thinly sliced radishes
Half a ripe avocado, diced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese

Honey-Lime Dressing

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro (or more to taste)
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
1 teaspoons chopped jalapeño pepper (use canned for less heat)



Recipe



Toss all salad ingredients in a large bowl. In separate bowl, mix dressing ingredients.
Pour dressing over mixture and toss again.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
