Hi there, !

Today's recipe takes two of my favorite restaurant/fast food salads and marries them together for a bowl full of YUM!

If you have ever tried McDonald's Bacon Ranch Grilled Chicken Salad, then you know it's super yummy! Chicken, bacon, tomato, cheese, and some salad greens are topped with Ranch dressing.

You know what other kind of salad I love? Taco salads! I will eat a taco salad from just about anywhere. When I think of homemade taco salads, though, I think of tortilla strips, black beans, and corn.

So today's salad takes the bacon/chicken/Ranch salad I love and mixes it with ingredients typically found in a taco salad...I'm calling it my "Southwest Bacon Chicken and Ranch salad"!

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this yummy salad:

Salads that are low in Smart Points.

I mentioned my favorite McDonald's salad. It is one of the foods I suggest eating in the Meal Planning Mommies WW restaurant/fast food survival guide. For a list of smart fast food and restaurant options that are low in WW SP, you will want to check out the list.

An example of something you would see on the list is this: The Premium Bacon Ranch Salad with Grilled Chicken and 1/2 packet of creamy Ranch sauce at McDonald's is 7 WW FreeStyle SP!

Today's salad recipe is even lower in WW SP.

One serving of today's Southwest Chicken Bacon and Ranch salad is just 3 WW FreeStyle SP, and it tastes fantastic!

That's it for today. I hope you have a great Tuesday!
