Santa Fe Salad

What you need:

2 cups Romaine Lettuce

1/4 cup Shredded Carrots

1/4 cup Avocado or Guacamole 

1/4 cup canned Corn

1/4 cup Black Beans, drained

3 oz Chicken breast

1/4 cup Shredded Cheese (I like cheddar)

2 tbsp tortilla strips

2 tbsp Hidden Valley Lite Ranch

For the chicken:
I use Tysons Grill an Ready chicken breasts for salads. For this salad I sprinkled a little bit of taco seasoning on it while it was heating with a little bit of water, as well.

Just assemble!

To make ahead:

Add lettuce, carrots, guac, corn, beans, cheese and chicken breast into a container until ready to eat. I like to sprinkle a little bit of lime on top as well. When ready, add dressing and tortilla strips. 

(Try mixing the avocado or guac into the dressing first, it's realllly good!)

Amazing Fruit Dip

Would I lie to you? I don't think so. When I say this is a.maz.ing.... I mean it. 

I originally found this recipe as a sauce for a fruit pizza (P.S. also amazing with a pretzel crust... don't tell anyone I said that) but I loved it so much I just use it as is!

What you need:

1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (I recommend the really good brand)

1 cup Sugar Free Cool Whip

1 Lime

Thaw out your cool whip until it's easy enough to scoop out and mix, but not super watery. 

Wash your lime. We need just a pinch of zest. Zest off about 1 tbsp of the lime. Cut lime in half. Squeeze lime juice into cup to make sure there are no seeds in it. Omit seeds if they are there. Pour juice from entire lime into cool whip. 

Next, open your can of condensed milk and pour into lime/cool whip mix. 

Mix it all together. 

You can eat it immediately but I recommend refrigerating it for a while first so that it gets back to it's thicker consistency.

I love eating this with Apples, mostly, but it goes great with practically any fruit. I also love it with Oranges. I don't know, maybe because there is lime in it it make the orange pop? Either way it's amazing.
