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.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 head of lettuce with some spinach or romaine mixed in
1 c finely sliced celery
6 hard boiled eggs, chopped or sliced
1 pkg 10 oz. cooked peas, fresh or frozen
1/2 c chopped green pepper
8 green onions, sliced
6 oz water chestnuts, sliced thinly (canned, ok)
12 slice bacon, cooked & crumbled or equivalent in bacon bits (save 4 slices for top)
1 c mayonnaise
1 c sour cream
2 Tbsp white sugar
1 c cheddar cheese, grated

Steps:

  • 1. Cut or break lettuce into small pieces. Layer in bottom of 9 x 13 inch pan or large glass bowl. Scatter each layer in order given.
  • 2. Mix mayonnaise with sour cream and sugar. Spread over top being careful to seal right to the edge of pan or bowl.
  • 3. Scatter grated cheese over all followed by bacon bits. Seal well with plastic wrap. Store in refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving. This keeps well a day or two.
