This hearty salad is made with cooked white rice, bursting with veggie richness and vibrant Mexican flavors. Toss the rice with lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and green onions. Add a touch of tartness with queso fresco, and a dressing of lime juice, smoky chipotle sauce, and agave nectar (or syrup) ties everything together. Toasted pumpkin seeds add a touch of class to this Mexican salad.
