How to Make After Easter Layered Salad
- Wash and thoroughly dry 6 cups of mixed greens. Place them gently in the bottom of a large (at least 10-quart) glass or clear bowl.
- Layer 2 cups of sliced tomatoes over the greens.
- Add a layer of 1 cup of sliced dill pickles.
- Arrange 6 hard-boiled eggs, sliced, over the pickles.
- Top with 2 cups of diced cooked ham.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion over the ham.
- In a small bowl, whisk together your favorite creamy salad dressing (about 1 cup). Pour evenly over the top layer of the salad.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld. This can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance for best results.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
