Chopped Salad inspired by Portillo's

Chicago natives know Portillo's and if you've never been before, you are missing out!  The menu does not include the healthiest of foods, mostly hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, and all things greasy.  But they have this salad that is just AMAZING!  Their chopped salad is something you must try if you go to Portillo's.  But....since you may not be from the area or you may not want the real version (which may have just as many calories as their cheeseburger), you can duplicate this salad to pretty close, but with much less calories and fat!  It's very filling and you can make it your meal!  Great for summer parties or a side dish to whatever you are grilling.  The recipe below is enough to serve 4 adults.
