CPK Salad




California Pizza Kitchen is one of the ONLY chain restaurants my husband and I feel like returning to every couple months! Over time, their BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad (minus the Chicken) quickly became my favorite. Here is a quick and easy dinner, especially for these warm summer evenings. It is both satisfying and filling alone, however you could choose to add a cold sandwich or soup alongside it if you please.

Ingredients:
1 Iceberg Lettuce or Romaine Lettuce
1 1/2 cup Black Beans (made by soaking overnight, or in a pressure cooker day of)
3 Roma Tomatoes, chopped
1 bunch Green Onions, chopped
1 Jicama - chopped
A handful of corn (I used frozen corn)
3-4 Avocados - cut into cubes
Monterey Jack Cheese - shredded
Tortilla Strips (found in the grocery store near other salad toppings)
Ranch Dressing
BBQ Dressing (optional)

Preparation:
1. Layer all the ingredients above, in the order listed. It is as simple as that, enjoy!
