• 1 avocado, diced
• ½ cup frozen corn
• ½ c. grated cheese
• 8 c salad greens
• 1 lb chicken breasts, cooked and diced (marinate with lime and dash of chili pepper) - I've used cut up roasted chicken from Costco
• Tostitos corn chips with lime
• Toss all ingredients together, add tortilla chips at the last minute

Dressing: Combine all dressing ingredients in blender, mix until smooth.

3c. Mayonnaise
3 T. water
3 T. white vinegar
