CAN I MAKE THIS SALAD AHEAD OF TIME?
Not entirely, but there are lots you can do ahead of time.
You can make the Tex-Mex dressing, wash and chop all the veggies, and store them in the fridge until you're ready to assemble the salad.
I often cook the ground beef ahead of time and then store it in the fridge until dinner time. Closer to meal time, I reheat the beef so it is hot when I layer it into the salad.
