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.

7 LAYERED SALAD, "GRANNY'S RECIPE" RECIPE - (4.5/5)

7 Layered Salad,

Provided by á-75476

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 head of lettuce, cut up
1 celery stalk, cut up
1 bag unthawed frozen peas
2 cups mayonnaise (or miracle whip)
2 Tbsp sugar
2 cups shredded colby cheese
1 cup bacon bits
5 boiled eggs, cut up

Steps:

Add a layer of hard cooked eggs before the mayonnaise and sprinkle the mayo with a couple tablespoons of sugar. It helps the dressing liquify somewhat to seep down into the veggie layers. To save time, I purchase "real" bacon bits to top the salad. Layer salad this way: lettuce on the bottom celery peas eggs mayonnaise & sugar mix cheese bacon on the top keep cool in the refrigerator until served

Ingredients

12 ounces bacon (about 12 slices), chopped
1 cup buttermilk
1 avocado, halved, pitted and peeled
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 head iceberg lettuce, cored and thinly sliced (about 10 cups)

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and fat is rendered, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain and crisp.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine buttermilk, avocado, lemon juice, and oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Puree until smooth.
Lightly pack iceberg into the bottom of a large glass bowl or trifle dish. Arrange egg slices vertically along edge of bowl in a single row, then scatter remaining eggs evenly over lettuce.

Refrigerate until ready to serve.
