Grilled Chicken Chipotle Salad

I've started a 'get fit kick' and have tried eating more healthy lately. I came up with this recipe myself and my husband voted it as the best salad he's ever eaten!!

Grilled Chicken:
I used my George Foreman grill to cook up chunks of chicken (then I cut them into strips). As for the seasoning on the chicken I used: salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and chipotle pepper.

Salad:
romaine lettuce, cucumber, green pepper, yellow pepperoncini peppers, tomatoes, black beans, corn, avocado, onion, grated cheese, carrots, broccoli, olives, cilantro, chili-lime tortilla strips.

Dressing:
Fresh squeezed lime juice

With all the ingredients and flavors on the salad you really don't need a dressing. The lime, chipotle, and cilantro blend was absolutely delicious!
