Mexican Style Chopped Salad with Goji Chipotle Dressing

Full of contrasting textures and flavors, there is something going on in every single bite. This Mexican chopped salad has a cool freshness from the romaine lettuce and is loaded with crispy veggies like kale, radishes, brown rice, sweet corn and jicama. The combination of rice and beans makes this dish a complete protein

TO SERVE: Separate the rice from the crunchy veggies and warm them on the stove top if desired. Add the salad to a large serving bowl and toss with our house made Goji Chipotle Dressing inspired by Cafe Gratitude, fresh herbs and a squeeze of lime. Pairs well with our Jalapeno Pesto.
