Mexican Chicken Chopped Salad

Here's another HEALTHY YOU recipe.  

I saw this recipe on PINTEREST - it came from Greens and Chocolate (Blog). I made a few changes in order to lighten up the recipe. Here's my version...

Mexican Chicken Chopped Salad

salad:

2 cups shredded chicken
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 can corn
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1 onion, chopped
1 head ice berg lettuce, washed and chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 ripe avocados, diced

Baked Tostito Chips (to go under the salad, as a base)

dressing:
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
2/3 cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp ranch seasoning
1 tbsp taco seasoning

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine all salad ingredients together, excluding the tortilla chips and avocado.  

In a small bowl stir all dressing ingredients together.  

To Plate:

Scatter tortilla chips at base of salad plate.  Cover with salad and then dollop dressing on salad, topping with diced avocado (1/2 avocado per salad)

Here's a photo of my diced avocado and dressing

This salad makes 4 servings (and they are HUGE servings). 

ENJOY!
