Mexican Chopped Salad With Avocado Dressing Recipes

MEXICAN CHOPPED SALAD WITH SPICY AVOCADO DRESSING

Steps:

• Put all ingredients for the salad in a large bowl and use two large forks to toss well.
• To prepare the dressing, put the flesh of the avocado, olive oil, cilantro, lime juice, salt, 3 tablespoons water, garlic, and the Tabasco sauce into a blender or mini-food processor. I like my small, Magic Bullet blender for this.
• Process until the dressing is very smooth. Add more water if needed for desired consistency (it will depend on the size of your avocado and how thick you like your dressing).
• You can dress the salad and then serve, or allow each person to put the amount of dressing they desire on their individual salads. Enjoy!

MEXICAN CHOPPED SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING

Steps:

• To make the salad, place the salad greens in a large bowl or two smaller bowls. In another small bowl, combine the black beans, chili powder, oregano, cumin, and sea salt, and stir to coat the beans with the spices. Place the spiced beans on top of the salad greens, along with the tomatoes, bell pepper, corn, and onion. Squeeze the lime juice and salt over the avocado, and add to the salad greens. To make the dressing, in a blender combine the avocado, cilantro, water, yogurt, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth. Pour over salad. Serve salad with tortilla chips and salsa on the side.
