I’ve been on a roll with the salad and dressing recipes I’ve been posting so I’ll keep it going today with a Salsa Ranch Dressing and Leftover Fajita Salad Recipe. You will NOT believe how easy this one is! Leftovers never tasted so good!

I never want to let anything go to waste. Even if there are just a few pieces of chicken fajitas left over I won’t throw them out. In fact, for the salad I photographed for this recipe actually had a little chicken left over from two evening meals so I mixed them together.
It’s also great with leftover rotisserie chicken!
Leftover Fajita Salad Recipe
- romaine lettuce
- grape tomatoes
- leftover chicken
- leftover grilled onions & peppers
- a few crispy onions
- grated cheese
- my homemade salsa ranch dressing
Salsa Ranch Dressing
- your favorite salsa
- ranch dressing – store bought or a healthier version with Greek yogurt. My recipe can be found here.
BTW, I’m NOT endorsing La Victoria salsa. I have a recipe that I need to share for an easy salsa that’s MUCH better! But that’s what I had on hand that day. I don’t really like it but if I mix it with the ranch dressing I can eat it.
If you missed the other salads I shared this summer, they’re listed below. I do as little cooking during the summer as I can!
- Salsa Ranch Dressing and Leftover Fajita Salad
- Homemade Buffalo Ranch Dressing
- Homemade Ranch Dressing
- Frito Taco Salad
I’d love to hear what your favorite salad it. Leave a comment and let me know!
‘Til the next meal,
