    Abstract: The invention is an insulated cooler designed to keep salads and other foods and beverages cold and fresh while also providing a convenient means to serve these foods and beverages. A first insert liner capable of supporting bowls or other serving dishes is positioned near the top opening of the cooler. A second insert liner is optionally placed below the first insert liner, creating a compartment for ice or other coolants. The size of the ice-containing compartment is adjusted by vertically adjusting the second insert liner. The second insert liner is designed to drain melted ice to the base of the cooler, and the cooler itself is equipped with a drain to the exterior. The cooler includes one or two lids that can serve as serving surfaces when locked in an open position.
