Avocado Ranch Salad Kit

"When we set out to create one of our all-in-one salad kits, sometimes it comes down to simply testing out a theory. For example: just on a conceptual level alone, the mild, lightly grassy flavor and remarkably creamy texture of avocado should make it a natural companion to the savory, herby sensations of a classic ranch dressing. We put that theory into practice with Trader Joe’s Avocado Ranch Salad Kit, by compiling a collection of fresh, crisp, shredded leafy greens and veggies, savory, grated Cheddar, and crunchy, lightly salted corn chips to act as a canvas for a captivaingly creamy ranch dressing made with a base of buttermilk and avocados. As it turns out, that theory was delightfully, deliciously correct. Don’t you just love the scientific method?

Like all our salad kits, this Avocado Ranch is a super quick and convenient way to add a side salad to practically any meal. It’s a proven winner with pizza, a beauty with barbecue, and a certified sensation, even with something as simple as a sandwich. Or, if you’d prefer it as an entrée, just pop your favorite protein on top, an voilà—you’ve got a whole meal on your hands. We find it works especially well with our frozen Grilled Chicken Strip, pan-seared salmon, or stir-fried, well-seasoned Organic 3-Grain Tempeh."
