I’m always on the hunt for a great salad, and this Mexican Chopped Salad is a great option. One of my favorite things about the warmer months is all of the amazing produce that’s available.
The lettuces seem to be more tender, the corn is sweeter, and the tomatoes are just so much better when they’re grown and ripened on the vine. Even better if you can get an heirloom variety. The taste has no comparison.
This Mexican Chopped Salad recipe highlights some of the best finds from the growing season. It’s a great time to hit up the Farmer’s Market or your local produce stands. They have the best fruits and veggies, and many times, they’re grown organically without the certification.
