Layered salad is a visually appealing dish that typically features a variety of ingredients stacked in clear layers, creating a colorful presentation. Commonly found in American cuisine, especially at potlucks and picnics, it often includes lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, hard-boiled eggs, cheese, bacon, onions, and a creamy dressing, such as mayonnaise or ranch. Additional ingredients like peas, beans, or bell peppers can also be added for extra texture and flavor. While the fresh vegetables provide vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, making it a healthy choice, the salad's overall nutritional value depends on portion size and the dressing used. Creamy dressings and bacon can significantly increase the calorie, fat, and sodium content, so lighter alternatives like yogurt-based dressings or reduced-fat cheeses may make it a more health-conscious option. This versatile dish offers a balanced mix of textures and flavors, suitable for a variety of tastes and occasions.
