MEXICAN FIESTA SALAD

"I was making a Mexican themed dinner one night last summer, and figured I'd make a salad with the fresh produce I had. I threw in anything that reminded me of Mexican food. Thankfully, it turned out, and the combination of salsa and ranch dressing is one we now use on sandwiches burgers and more, " writes Heather Byers from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
