mexican chopped veg salad

MEXICAN CHOPPED VEG SALAD This is so delicious and good for you. It's also very versitile. Add black beans or grilled chicken to make a main dish summer salad, serve along side grilled meat or like I did cheese enchiladas, stuff into pita with a little cheese... Endless possibilities. This salad has a little kick (very little, seriously like someone nudged you with their foot...) but if you don't like spicy at all, use all plain chili powder instead of half plain and half chipotle chili powder. On the other hand if you like more spice use all chipotle chili powder and no plain...Also remember with all the fat coming from olives, olive oil and avacado, it's heart healthy fat!
