Cooking Light's Seven Layer Salad


From the june 2006 issue of cooking light magazine. they recommend serving this with their creamy stove-top macaroni and cheese for a complete meal. i like the addition of the kidney beans as a protein source. can be whipped up quickly for dinner, or made ahead and refrigerated overnight. i haven't made the full salad, and instead downsized to fit in a small loaf pan for just my hubby and myself.

Steps


Layer lettuce , beans , tomatoes , cucumbers , and carrots in that order in a large bowl.
Combine sour cream and ranch dressing.
Spread dressing mixture over carrot layer.
Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Cover and chill.
