Step Description
1 Begin by preparing the vegetables. Wash and chop the iceberg lettuce, Belgian endives, carrots, green onions, and radishes into bite-sized pieces. Ensure they are thoroughly dried using a salad spinner or paper towels to prevent excess moisture in the salad.
2 In a clear glass salad bowl, start layering the ingredients. Begin with half of the chopped iceberg lettuce, creating an even base at the bottom of the bowl.
3 Next, layer the remaining vegetables alternately with the frozen tiny peas. Arrange them in a visually appealing manner, taking care to create a colorful and vibrant presentation.
4 For added visual appeal, ensure the layers showcase complementary colors, creating a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.
5 In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise and chili sauce, stirring until well blended. This creamy and tangy dressing will perfectly complement the crispness of the vegetables.
6 Once the vegetables are layered, spread the dressing evenly over the top of the salad, covering it completely. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth the dressing into an even layer.
7 To complete the salad, add the remaining half of the chopped iceberg lettuce on top, creating a final layer that encapsulates the vibrant colors and flavors below.
8 Cover the salad bowl securely with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent any air from entering. Refrigerate the salad for a minimum of 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld together and develop, enhancing the overall taste of the dish.
9 Before serving, give the salad a gentle toss to ensure the dressing is evenly distributed throughout. Serve chilled and enjoy the fresh, crisp flavors of this delightful Layered Vegetable Salad!

Prepare this salad ahead of time to save time on busy weeknights or to impress your guests at gatherings. With its combination of crunchy vegetables and creamy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Enjoy the convenience and flavor of this Canadian-inspired dish, perfect for any occasion! 🌟
