Cooking Challenge Week 7: Taco Chicken Salad

Picnics are a great way to get out and enjoy the beautiful summer weather. Whether at the beach, a park or your backyard, picnic meals can be fun for the whole family. And it's a great chance to get creative with what you eat. So when I started thinking about a new dish I could make for my own picnic, I turned to a dish I make often for lunch, chicken salad. Normally, it's just chopped chicken, mayo and a little Dijon mustard. But for my picnic dish, I decided to spice it up a bit and add a big crunch factor. Here are the ingredients you'll need to make my Taco Chicken Salad (for two oversized sandwiches):

• 2 cups rotisserie chicken, chopped

• 1/4 cup mayo

• 1/4 cup black beans, rinsed

• 2 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled

• 1/2 tbsp taco seasoning

• 1/2 lime

• Hot sauce

• 1/2 cup corn chips

• 2 soft sandwich buns

Here's how I made it:
