This was a great salad, has more ingredients than the usual Mexican salad has, this is a huge salad. We have had it for two meals and still have some left over. It would be great for a potluck.

Loved this salad. I too left off the garbanzo beans (personal preference, but other than that made as it. I used about a tablespoon of chili powder and 1 tsp of cumin and 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt to get the flavor I was looking for. I also left the cumin out of the dressing (personal preference.) Thanks Bayhill and congratulations on the football win.
