Layered salad with chicken and mushrooms
Description
Perfect for everyday meals. A delicious and festive salad that's also easy to prepare—every hostess's dream, isn't it? I'd like to share with you the recipe for just such a salad. This salad is quick to make, and you can speed up the marinating process. When guests arrive unexpectedly and you already have all the necessary ingredients, simply chop or grate them, mix with mayonnaise, and then layer them. The salad will be well-marinated, the layers won't fall apart, and everything will turn out perfectly. I'll explain how. Decorate as desired and serve.
