This salad had delicious Southwest flavors- top it with corn chips to add some crunch. :) It is pretty easy to make too- I used my immersion blender and a 2-cup liquid measuring cup to whip up the dressing. My dressing was a bit thin, and it made too much- don't just dump it all on at once, or you'll have a soggy salad. I have some leftover.
