BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad

Amounts on the ingredients in this salad are up to your interpretation.  No measuring necessary - just throw stuff in.

1 head Lettuce (romaine, iceberg are both good - even great mixed)

1/2 container fresh basil, chopped

1/4 jicima, chopped (jicima is a vegetable that you can have your grocer cut in half for you. Sometimes this is necessary, because they can be very large.)

black beans (I usually use about 1/2 a can, drained and rinsed)

White shoepeg corn (again, usually use about 1/2 a can, drained)

shredded montery jack cheese

crushed tortilla chips

Ranch Dressing (I like Marie's from the produce section)

1 Avocado, chopped

1 tomato, chopped

1 lime wedged - to garnish and serve with salad

2 Grilled chicken breasts, chopped and coated with BBQ sauce

In a large salad bowl, toss lettuce, basil, jicima, beans, corn, chips, cheese and dressing. It's pretty if you transfer to a large platter to serve. I usually edge the platter with tomatoes and top with chicken and avocado.
