Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine lettuce, black beans, corn, bell pepper, scallions, and cilantro.

  3. Add Crunchy Topping: Just before serving, crush the tortilla chips and sprinkle them over the salad for a crunchy topping.

Notes:

This salad is best assembled just before eating. The warm rice wilts the greens slightly for a pleasant warm-cool contrast.

Tips:

Use freshly cooked warm rice for the best result. Cold rice makes the salad feel heavy.

Storage:

Store components separately in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Dress only the portion being eaten immediately.
