Southwestern salad
- I love salads and eat them every day. I saw this salad on pinterest and thought this would be good to try. I love all the ingredients. I do not normally use Catalina dressing, but thought it would be good with this salad. It is super easy to make. i didn't have a whole bag of corn chips...I just had a little one....so four cups would be a lot and would have probably filled it to the top. I got to use my trifle dish to display the salad. I am currently waiting for my husband to come home from playing tennis. This should hit the spot for him after a sweaty game of tennis.
- I remembered to take pictures of the food this time. Usually, I am so excited about what i just made, we devour it before i can photograph it. Well this time, I did photograph it and when i brought it back to the kitchen to set on the countertop before lifting it into the refrigerator, my right arm slipped and the whole thing tilted and out came the corn chips and some of the salad out onto the countertop. Luckily i got it all back in and looking halfway decent. I have been having problems with my right arm and hand and am wearing a hand and wrist brace.I will serve this with some leftover naan bread that i made earlier in the week. Thanks Jessica for suggesting I try making it.

- In a large salad bowl, toss together the beans, green onions, tomato, avocado and half of the Catalina dressing. Top with cheese and then lettuce. Refrigerate. Just before serving, add corn chips to salad and toss. Serve with remaining dressing.Yield: 8-10 servings.
