SIMPLE LAYERED SALAD

Simple Layered Salad image

My husband used to have a restaurant & when we would cater events we always made this salad. It was always a hit and never any leftovers, just a bit different from most on the site. The lettuce stays crisp for several days, excellent for a lite lunch. Hope you enjoy.

Ingredients

1 small head of lettuce, torn into bite size pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (15 ounce) can English peas
3 -4 hardboiled egg, chopped
1/2 lb bacon, fried & crumbled (I use the real bacon bits, in the jar)
1 lb cheese, shredded, sharp cheddar
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

I use a 13 cup plastic container, with lid.
Mix mayonnaise with seasonings & sugar, make sure sugar dissolves, put aside.
Place lettuce on bottom of container.
Add onion, eggs, then peas.
Put dressing on top of these layers, smooth out & seal to sides of container.
Top dressing with bacon, then cheese as top layer.
Cover & refrigerate for at least 12 hours up to 24 hours.
You can mix it up before serving, but we just portion out what we want.
For a large crowd, you can double or triple this easily and feed a bunch of people.
Cooking time is refrigerator time.
