Description

Sprinkle shredded cheddar over some tortilla chips, and pop them under the broiler for a minute-you'll have instant first-course nachos. All you need with the salad is a basket of tortillas or crusty bread. Mix some cinnamon into chocolate pudding to wrap up this Mexican-style dinner.

Ingredients

1/3 cup mayonnaise (regular or low-fat)
1/4 cup spicy purchased red salsa
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
8 ounces diced cooked chicken or turkey (about 2 cups)
1 red or yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 ripe avocado, peeled, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. Stir mayonnaise, salsa and 3 tablespoons cilantro in medium bowl to blend. Add chicken and toss to coat. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand 10 minutes to blend flavors.
  2. Arrange bell pepper and avocado slices decoratively on plates. Mound salad atop vegetables, dividing equally. Sprinkle salads with remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro and serve.
