I love this salad! It's so fresh and flavorful. I make it all the time for lunch or dinner. I usually add some grilled chicken or shrimp to it for extra protein.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fajita beef. I made a big batch of fajitas on the weekend and used the leftovers to make this salad for lunch the next day. It was delicious and easy to make.
