Mexican Chopped Salad with a Citrus Vinaigrette

Mexican Chopped Salad with a Citrus Vinaigrette

by Pam on November 14, 2013

I saw this recipe on Better Recipes[1] and couldn’t wait to make it. I loved the flavor of the vinaigrette and the crunch of all the veggies in the salad. It was refreshing, healthy, and super delicious. We all enjoyed it and gobbled it right up. I had the leftovers the following day, and aside from the soggy lettuce, it was still crunchy, flavorful, and delicious. This is a terrific salad that would pair nicely with most Mexican main dishes.

Combine the cumin, coriander, cayenne, orange juice, orange zest, lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste together in a bowl. Whisk until well combined. Set aside.

Chop the tomatoes, green onions, avocado, bell pepper, and romaine lettuce. Drain and rinse the black beans and thaw the frozen corn and edamame. Place the chopped romaine lettuce in the bottom of a dish. Arrange the remaining salad ingredients on top of the lettuce in rows. Toss with vinaigrette, to taste, when ready to serve. Sprinkle the top with cheese and cilantro. Serve and enjoy.
