Cowboy Salad

I don't know about you, but a good salad to me is one that is heavy on the toppings and this Cowboy Salad is just that! It's loaded with veggies, bacon, cheese, black beans and the best BBQ dressing ever. We all agreed this salad was a true winner and we're going to be making this time and time again!

Now don't you want to take a big bite of this??
