Southwest Salad with Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing!!  Easy Salad recipe you may want to eat everyday!

 Salads are the perfect summertime food to me and one style of salad that I like to buy at various restaurants is the southwest salad.  I wanted to create a version that I could easily whip up in my kitchen and came up with this Southwest Salad with Cilantro Lime Dressing.  We loved how it turned out and my kids are already asking me to make it again!  I know we will be making this all summer long because it’s so quick and easy to make.

All the salad ingredients can be cooked in the microwave.  I started this salad by cooking up some Tyson Grilled and Ready Chicken and sliced it into thin strips.  Tyson Grilled and Ready Chicken is the easiest and tastiest grilled chicken that doesn’t require a grill!   They are also made with white meat and are 100% all natural.

Bird's Eye Southwest Blend

The next ingredient I used to make this salad is the Bird’s Eye Protein Southwest Style blend.   The Bird’s Eye Protein sides can be used as a full meal because they have added protein or they can be used as a side for any course.  I love them because they are a quick and easy meal solution that’s quickly cooked up in the microwave.  The Bird’s Eye Southwest Style Blend was perfect for this salad and went well with the Cilantro Lime Dressing.  Easy Cilantro Lime Dressing!  Easy recipe for a gourmet salad dressing flavor!
