SOUTHWESTERN CHOPPED SALAD WITH CILANTRO-LIME DRESSING #vegetarian #vegan

My preferred plate of mixed greens! We're wild for this Southwestern Chopped Salad prepared in the most delectable, velvety avocado cilantro-lime dressing! (Veggie lover, without gluten, sans oil choice)

We think the smooth, tasty cilantro-lime dressing and serving of mixed greens are an ideal marriage. So fresh and invigorating together! I love getting a spoon and gathering up all the wonderful hues and plant-based goodness. For us, one formula of the cilantro dressing is an extraordinary counterpart for the measure of plate of mixed greens underneath. It's an incredible supper to make for picnics, potlucks, make-ahead snacks to bring. Don't hesitate to store the dressing and plate of mixed greens independently and just hurl before serving on the off chance that you'd incline toward it to be new and fresh!

We're wild for this Southwestern Chopped Salad prepared in the most scrumptious, rich avocado cilantro-lime dressing! Excellent hues, flavors, and surfaces aplenty!
