Excellent & filling. I used leftover fajita-seasoned chicken. Followed your recipe as-is, omitting black olives. This made 5 big servings for me. DH & I used salsa as a dressing; a friend who ate with us used ranch dressing. Filling & low-carb :) Thanks!

Excellent salad. Great for a high fiber and protein diet. I used reduced fat mozarella, since that's all I had (reduced-fat cheeses are hard to find here - you get a choice of cheddar or mozzarella, lol, so I used a little of both. I used half romaine and half iceberg lettuce, and my own fresh salsa. This makes a delicious lunch.
