This refreshing salad is excellent for a summer cookout. Since you mix it ahead, the flavors have time to blend and there's no last minute fussing. My friends ask me to bing it every time we get together for a meal. —Teresa Fischer, Munster, Indiana

My daughter says it reminds her of Qudoba's burritos. Next time I make it we'll warm it up a bit and place it in a tortilla with chicken strips, cheese and black beans.

Love love love it! I made this to put on top of salad greens instead of using salad dressing. I can't stop eating it by itself. It is so good.

Wow, what a FABULOUS salad! I made this for a work bbq and it was a huge hit. This will be a go-to recipe for me in the summers! Thanks for sharing!
