8 SALAD recipes
This is my copycat of the popular salad sold at McDonald's. It's the only thing I eat off their menu and I was anxious to replicate it at home.
Tex-Mex spiced chicken tossed with fresh mango, crunchy jicama, and bell peppers in a zesty lime dressing. Served in crispy microwaved tortilla bowls over shredded Bibb lettuce.
A tangy kidney bean salad dressed in spiced non-fat yogurt with chili powder, cumin, and oregano. No cooking required. Serve over lettuce with cornbread for an easy Mexican-inspired lunch.
