Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion. Toss well to mix the ingredients evenly.

  2. 2

    Add Toppings

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut it into cubes and add it to the salad bowl along with the corn and black beans. Gently toss to combine without mashing the avocado.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Tapatio hot sauce, olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 4

    Dress the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly. Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more salt or Tapatio if desired.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Salad
