Summer Salads!!

Whoa! It's been awhile since I posted on here. I'm totally on a salad kick lately. Mostly because I hate cooking when it's hot outside and also it's a easy and tasty way to get all those veggies and fruits in!!

Chicken Fajita Salad

1/2 a grilled chicken breast per person
as much of your favorite lettuce as you want
1 diced tomato per person (or more if you want)
variety of bell peppers and onions grilled or fresh and then sliced (as much as you like)
1/2 c fat free refried beans
1 tbsp light ranch dressing

Throw it all together and enjoy!! I usually do this when I have leftovers of grilled chicken and peppers. It's so easy and my whole family LOVES it.
