Thermomix American Layered Salad

If there was ever such thing as a savory trifle, this American Layered Salad is it. Best served in mason jars or a clear bowl to reveal each tasty layer, this salad is a winner for picnics and BBQs. Almost as much fun to assemble as it is to eat, this salty yet fresh salad will keep overnight in the fridge before serving, and will even enhance the flavors to wait a little.

Our Thermomix recipe keeps it simple and tasty with tinned tuna, eggs, potatoes and green beans. If you're feeling adventurous, get some herbs like dill involved for an extra touch of freshness, or throw in some capers to add to the olives' saltiness. The world is your oyster; dig in and discover the joy of salad.
