Healthy Southwest Salad

"A southwest salad is a go-to restaurant order of mine, but even though it is salad, when ordered out, it’s often filled with some not so healthy ingredients. So, to mimic the fun flavor combinations, I decided to create my own healthier version at home. This Healthy Southwest Salad has plenty of nutritious ingredients. Fiber rich black beans, and plenty of fresh vegetables like tomatoes, peppers, and onions lay the foundation for perfectly seared chicken tenders. And what I think may be the best part of this salad is the Homemade Greek Yogurt Chipotle Sauce. Using greek yogurt in dressing is magical because it helps achieve a super creamy consistency, but is packed with protein. Adding a few other southwest ingredients make a dressing that truly tastes restaurant worthy."
