Ingredients

12 servings
  • One 10-ounce can original Rotel tomatoes with green chiles
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 3 ounces cream cheese, (at room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 medium garlic clove, (minced)
  • 6 cups chopped Romaine lettuce
  • One 15-ounce can black beans, (rinsed and drained)
  • One 15-ounce can corn, (rinsed and drained)
  • 2 medium avocados, (peeled and sliced or diced)
  • ¾ cup jarred roasted red pepper strips
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • One 6-ounce can sliced olives ((reserve a few for garnish))
  • ¼ cup sliced green onions
  • additional chopped lettuce, shredded cheese and olives for garnish

Steps

  1. Place dressing ingredients in a large bowl and use an electric mixer to combine until smooth. Set aside while you prepare the salad.NOTE: Please note that the video for this recipe shows adding mayonnaise to the dressing. That's an error- it's cream cheese!

  2. Layer the salad ingredients in a large glass bowl in the following order: 4 cups of lettuce, black beans, corn, avocado, red peppers, 2 more cups of lettuce, cheese, and olives. Spread the dressing on top. Then use a few sprinkles of chopped lettuce, cheese, olives and green onions to garnish the top. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours, or serve immediately.
