My latest obsession for chopped salad has got me creating more salads than I could eat but this spicy Mexican taco salad with a homemade creamy garlic chipotle dressing is literally to die for!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key to any good chopped salad, aside from homemade dressing, is to have fresh produce, everything from the crisp lettuce to crunchy cucumbers makes all the difference in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love using Rubbermaids FreshWorks containers that have a built-in filter that does not need replacement and regulates the flow of oxygen + carbon dioxide in and out of the container to help produce stay fresher, longer than when stored in traditional store packaging. Which means I have fresher veggies + fruits for my salads and less trips to the grocery stores and food wastage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

FreshWorks is available in 5 sizes, which is perfect for various types of produce and storage locations and are top rack dishwasher safe along with being BPA free. One lid fits multiple bases, making finding a matching set easier, and bases nest inside each other for easy cabinet storage when not in use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          • Store the extra dressing in a airtight container in the fridge.\u00a0<\/li>\n
          • I buy my canned adobe peppers at the grocery store, its located in the International section next to all the beans and other Mexican foods.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
