Santa Fe Salad

Santa Fe Salad is filled with bold southwestern flavor and has the most wonderful texture. Romaine lettuce, grilled chicken, black beans, corn, tomatoes, tortilla strips, avocado and cheese come together for the most amazing combination. And the creamy southwest dressing is the perfect finishing touch.

  • This salad pairs perfectly with the southwest dressing, but you could also serve it with Blue Cheese Dressing or Homemade Ranch Dressing.
