Mexican salad

-Meat (you can use anything) - I use flattened chicken breast that I cook on a grill pan with just some lime juice (but it works with taco meat, sliced steak etc) - I cut it into thin strips but you can dice it. Chicken chili or beef chili work too.

-Lettuce

-black beans

- diced tomatoes

- sliced avocado or guacamole

-tortilla chips

-sour cream

-shredded cheddar or monteray jack mix

-jalapenos if you eat them

-Salsa

-black olives (you can leave it out if you don't like them)

-
On a large plate you just put a bed of lettuce down, top with black beans and chicken. Then I put some shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado or guacamole. Then you can top it with a little sour cream and jalapenos and some diced black olives. I then put a few tortilla chips around the edge of the plate. I don't use dressing but you can if you want.

It is a very quick dinner esp if you have the meat already prepared.
