I know the harvard beets had a sauce(?),do they even make those anymore.I think that one was a can of beets, a can of corn niblets (sp) & maybe a handful of raisins lightly mixed together. I think SouthP has it right for the shredded carrots. Think I will look for the beets, haven't seen those in years. I need to bring a salad to a BBQ.
Yes you can still buy canned harvard beets. Though mixing them with corn niblets, the corn would go purple .. not sure I'd be enticed in the least with that though.
So are you saying you are looking for salads that are made from canned ingredients?
Ellen ... The 7 layered pea salad .... is that the one with the lettuce, and other veggies, and then you top it off with an "icing" that's your dressing?
