1.	In medium bowl, layer lettuce, bell pepper, 1 1/4 cups of the salsa and the corn. Top with remaining 3/4 cup salsa and the avocado.
2.	In food processor or blender, process all vinaigrette ingredients except oil until mixed. Gradually pour in oil, processing until thick. Serve vinaigrette with salad.

Purchasing

Purchased black bean salsa adds a lot of character to this salad without extra work! Look for it near the dips in the dairy or snack chip section or in the deli of your grocery store.

Special Touch

For a special presentation, instead of layering the salad in a bowl, arrange the salad ingredients on individual plates and serve with the vinaigrette on the side.

Time Saver

Skip the shredding. Buy already-shredded lettuce in the salad section of your grocery store.
