Multi-Layered Salad image

Love this salad. It is always made during the hot summer months when I don't want to heat up the kitchen. To save time I buy pre-chopped veggies and pre-cooked bacon.

I'm not a huge fan of beets, but I loved this salad. The beets were roasted perfectly and they were so sweet.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the beets and carrots pairs perfectly with the tartness of the vinegar.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some leftover roasted beets, carrots, and parsnips, and I added them to this salad. It was delicious!
