This is an EXCELLENT, FLAVORFUL, TANGY, and HEALTHY salad! The dressing is a real winner, so full of flavor but no fat! I used Pace mild chunky salsa, white onion and lemon juice in the dressing. I pureed it with an immerson blender in a 2 cup pyrex. For the salad I used triple hearts lettuces and added purple cabbage and green onion. I didn't have an avocado to use. I made 2 servings. Made for Zaar tag.
