Chef’s Salad

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + chilling YIELD: 6 servings.
At the restaurant, we always made three dressings to go with this chef salad...blue cheese, French and Thousand Island. At home, I had to serve all three dressings, too, because everyone had their favorite. Sometimes the kids would use a tablespoon of each. —Eleanore Hill, Fresno, California
