I have seen many versions of the Seven layer salad and I have combined several to make up this salad. This salad should be prepared 24 hours in advance of serving. (The cooking time is the refrigeration time)

COMPANY'S COMING MULTI LAYERED SALAD

Company's Coming Multi Layered Salad image

For special events or for show, a deep punch bowl or large glass bowl really shows off this salad. It is a bit harder to layer in a bowl that is rounded but it looks great if you are having it on your table. I personally do not like head lettuce, so I use romaine, spring mix and sometimes add spinach to it.
