Expert Tips

Canned diced beets can be used in place of the fresh beets.

To reduce the fat in each serving of this salad by about 14 grams, use low-fat ranch dressing and reduced-fat Cheddar cheese.

A clear, straight-sided glass bowl shows off the beautiful colors of this layered salad. Garnish it with sprigs of fresh herbs and red bell pepper cut with a small flower-shaped cutter.
