This is a very quick and easy salad to make. The name is Swedish; it literally means 'Grandmother's Striped Salad.' It's 'striped' because the ingredients are colorful and julienned. My grandmother and I created this salad about 15 years ago so the measurements are estimated. Just use as much as you need or want. Ingredients:
2 eggs |
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, julienned |
1/2 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1/2 green bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1 (15 ounce) can sliced pickled beet, julienned |
1 small cucumber, shredded |
2 large carrots, shredded |
8 tablespoons thousand island dressing |
Directions:
1. Place eggs in a saucepan, and cover completely with cold water. Bring water to a boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, and cool. Peel and chop.
2. Combine the lettuce, bell peppers, beets, egg, cucumber and carrots in a large bowl, or in individual bowls. Toss, and serve the dressing on the side.
