Taco Salad

Time for a nice cool summer meal!  We love this recipe it requires no cooking at all and is quite filling!

I got this recipe from a Kraftfoods Magazine, it was called Southwest Layered Salad, but we just call it Taco Salad.

6 cups torn romaine lettuce ( we actually prefer baby spinach leaves for this salad )
1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed/drained
1 can mexicorn, drained
3/4 cup salsa
1/2 - 1 cup shredded cheese ( we like the Kroger Mexican blend )
1/4 cup ranch dressing ( we actually don't put this in the bowl but let everyone add it at will )
Tortilla chips

Place leaves in the bottom of the bowl add layers of beans, corn, salsa, and cheese. Repeat until bowl is full.  We like to put the corn chips on our plate and cover them with the salad and then add the ranch dressing. Enjoy!
