Mexican Mozzarella Salad

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice and vegetable oil. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

   Tip: Adjust seasoning as needed.

2. 2

   Add the chopped red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine.

   Tip: Be gentle to avoid bruising the onion.

3. 3

   Add the canned black beans, mozzarella cheese, and diced tomatoes to the bowl. Stir until well combined.

   Tip: Use a spoon to break up any clumps of beans or cheese.

4. 4

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

   Tip: This step is optional, but it will help the flavors to meld together.

5. 5

   Just before serving, stir in the corn tortilla chips.

   Tip: Crunchy tortilla chips add a nice texture to the salad.

6. 6

   Serve the salad chilled, with lime wedges on the side.

   Tip: Squeeze a bit of lime juice over the salad for extra flavor.

7. 7

   Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.

   Tip: This adds a pop of color to the dish.
