We love a good chopped salad at Gran Luchito and we really believe that they never have to be boring. This Mexican Salad recipe is proof of that and it can be served either as a main meal or as a side salad, with any protein you might be already cooking for your family. It’s perfect for those days when you feel like something a bit lighter, but still tasty. Our Chipotle Paste has many uses, but it’s also a great ingredient to make salad dressings, so we often just pop in a spoonful of this to make a quick and spicy dressing. It infuses any homemade dressing with that wonderful smoky heat. This light and fresh chopped Mexican salad is colourful, satisfying and a tiny bit spicy (but just the right amount!). We also like to add our black Cantina Beans, crumbled creamy feta on top and our Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips, which bring an extra bit of crunch and texture. If you’d like to add some extra sides to go with this salad, how about some Mexican Corn or some Quick Empanadas to pick at on the side. Why don’t you try it and let us know what you think!
