  • 8 oz bag Salad greens
  • 8 oz Pepper Jack Cheese cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 10 oz package grape tomatoes
  • 4 oz chopped green chile

  • 8 slices cooked crisp bacon chopped
  • 1 avocado cut into small cubes
  • 1/2 Red bell pepper cut into bite-size pieces

Instructions

For the Dressing

  • In a blender or food processor, add all the dressing ingredients and blend well (May add more buttermilk if needed to bring to the desired consistency)
  • Cover and chill in the fridge until ready to serve. NOTE: The dressing is even better if it is made and stored in the fridge overnight for the flavors to marry.

For the Salad

  • Cook and chop the bacon, cube the cheese and chop the red bell pepper and slice up the avocados.
  • Drain the corn and the black beans. Black black beans in a colander and rinse very well and allow to drain.
  • Place chopped lettuce greens in a large salad bowl
  • Arrange all the toppings in rows on top of the lettuce.
