About

I love preparing this salad to accompany heavier Mexican dishes. It’s colorful and contains lots of nutrients, such as vitamins A and C and potassium. It also has a good amount of fiber and monounsaturated fat. Don’t have time to make the salad dressing? There are many options for lime dressings available at the grocery store. Chop your romaine into bite-sized pieces—your guests will love it. This salad goes well with Pollo Rancho King.
