Indio, California: We are spending our day in final preparation for our departure tomorrow. Before we frappe la rue, here is the Recipe of the Month from the April RV Goddess Newsletter.

Another "concept" salad here, folks. You can vary the ingredients as much as you desire - the secret to this salad is the tangy dressing. Use chopped grilled or poached chicken, or chop-up deep-fried chicken tenders. Your family doesn't like green pepper? Omit it. Want some spice? Add a diced jalapeno. Vegetarian? Don't add chicken. The first eight salad ingredients can be prepped earlier in the day - just add the avocado, cheese and lettuce at the last minute, then toss with the dressing and serve.DRESSING:
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup your favorite BBQ sauce
SALAD:
1 cup frozen corn kernels, rinsed under hot water and drained
One 15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 red or green bell pepper, diced
1 cup diced fresh tomato
2 or 3 green onions, sliced
Handful fresh cilantro leaves
2 cups chilled cooked chicken, diced
One 2.25 ounce can sliced ripe black olives, drained
One avocado, diced
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2-3 cups chopped crunchy lettuce, such as iceberg or romaine
GARNISH:
Crunched-up tortilla chips or Fritos
Mix the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside. Place the salad ingredients in a large serving bowl. Toss with the salad dressing and garnish with corn chips or Fritos (I vote for Fritos). Serves 6 as a main course.
