I absolutely love this recipe. So kid friendly and easy. A meal in itself. The only change I made was the avocado. I used thawed frozen peas instead. My daughter rated it A+++++.

Loved this salad. My husband and I both kept going back "for just a little more." I used light ranch and reduced the amount by half. Also used 2% cheese and half the chips. Added a layer of salsa over the beans (for the flavor and to make up for the reduced dressing) and saved the chips for a last minute topping. Thanks for sharing a great recipe.

Good suggestion to substitute the black beans. Also, my family appreciated that I did not use all the dressing it called for. I used about 1/2 to 2/3 and made the rest available on the side. I, too, agree it could be made the night before a lunch, but not too far in advace because the avacado starts to turn brown. Really yummy!

I could not fit this recipe in a 11x13 pan, so I layered it in a large bowl. I was a little leary of adding the crushed chips and then letting it sit 30 minutes for fear of getting soggy - much to my surprise, if you layer according to the directions, it comes out superb!

I will make this again. I used fresh salsa instead of a tomato and I used frozen (thawed) guacamole instead of a fresh avocado. Also just a chopped onion. Left out the red cabbage as well. I needed something fast and had to use what was on hand. The lettuce as a little soggy (Duh!); but it was still delicious. Will stay closer to the actual recipe next time! Thanks for a good one, Gail.

This salad was a hit with my familly, easy, unusual and delicious. I used Litehouse brand ranch dressing and the flavor it imparts to this salad is incredible. Wouldn't change a thing.

Absolutely delicious!! It seriously took me 5 minutes to make and it was SO good!! I just used the pinto beans straight from the can after I drained and rinsed them and it was delicious. I didn't use as much dressing as it called for, I just drizzled it over the top. Oh, and for the chips we used pepper jack Doritos. It was SO good!! Really this is one of those things that I will make all the time with burgers, chicken, etc. It would be perfect for a summer bbq.
