Calypso Spinach Salad - Rumbi Island Grill Copycat
We spent the last week and a half in Utah visiting family for spring break. We went to eat at Rumbi Grill and this is the salad I chose. It is so delicious!! I would like to figure out how to make my own Balsamic Vinaigrette that tastes just like theirs, but until then, I just bought Smith's Brand Private Selection Creamy Balsamic Light.
Baby spinach
Grilled chicken pieces
Bacon bits
Mandarin oranges
Feta cheese
Carrots - grated
Red onion finely diced
Caramelized walnuts ( I did not use these)

Chicken Caesar Taco's
This is a recipe that unfortunately my kids don't like near as much as Jon and I do. It is very easy to make and has lots of flavor. It is served cold and can be eaten as a main dish served in a taco shell, or it makes a great salad. This recipe came from my sister, Michelle. Thank you!
5-6 Chicken tenders cooked and cut into pieces
10 oz of Romaine lettuce chopped up (5-6 leaves, who knows how much 10 oz is?)
2 cups of cheddar cheese (divided into 2 one cup amounts)
1 diced Avocado
1 can of diced green chiles
1/2 cup of can black beans (drained & rinsed)
1/4 frozen corn (thawed)
1/3 C of Caesar salad dressing
¼ C taco sauce (medium, and I use just a drizzle of it or it is too hot for my liking!)
12 Taco shells warmed
2 cups of diced tomato (optional)
Combine chicken, 1 cup of cheese, avocado, chiles, bean & corn in a large bowl.
Combine taco sauce & Caesar dressing into a small bowl, mix well and add chicken mixture and then mix in you salad greens.
Fill each taco with mixture & add additional cheese & tomato to your liking
