SEVEN LAYER SALAD



Seven Layer Salad image

I usually make this bacon, lettuce, onion, pea, cheese and cauliflower layered salad in a large flat bowl. There's never too much because everybody loves it! You can vary the salad by substituting green onions for red, jack cheese for the Cheddar, etc.

11 LAYER SALAD



11 Layer Salad image

I love the classic 7 layer salad and I love veggies so I just kept adding more ingredients and now it's an 11 layer salad. I made it for Thanksgiving one year and it was the talk of the party and gobbled up fast. I have been told this is the best layer salad recipe ever and I am asked to bring it to all holiday dinners. I think the double layering is the key. This makes a big salad!

In looking for a good recipe (I saw several good ones)for a layered salad to take to a pot luck, I did not find exactly what I was looking for, so I decided to create my own. I used ideas from some of the recipes that I found here on Zaar.
