Fajita seasoning makes this salad feisty. The chicken is rubbed with it before grilling, and the wonderful bean/corn/salsa mixture is cooked in a bit of it as well. Add lots of greens, onions and tomatoes, and you have an amazing salad.

Savory Roasted Root Vegetables
Savory Roasted Root Vegetables
Submitted by: mgoblue1
Beets were my sworn enemy until I tried them like this, it's a great way to use root vegetables. I think the beets add a beautiful red color to the dish, but if it bothers you to serve pinkish vegetables, substitute parsnips, rutabaga, or any similar vegetable; be creative!
