GRANDMA RICHTER'S WILTED LETTUCE SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Place salad ingredients into a very large bowl. (I put mine into a 13 cup size Tupperware bowl.)
• 2. In another bowl, add the creamy dressing ingredients. Stir thoroughly to blend the ingredients together.
• 3. Pour the creamy dressing, a little at a time, over the salad, and stir gently to combine.
• 4. Once the creamy dressing has been completely mixed into the salad, serve the salad immediately.
• 5. *Note: When making this salad, you can pretty much use any type of lettuce, but my daughter and I agree, we much prefer using romaine lettuce; picked fresh from ones garden, but you can use store bought lettuce, even the iceberg lettuce. Also, when adding the leaves to the bowl, I pretty much left the leaves whole, except for the leaves that were a bit too large, then I tore those in half.

WILTED LETTUCE & ONION SALAD WITH BACON

• 4. NOTE: This is copied as written, so for the 1 1/2 Quarts of shredded lettuce, spinach or greens, you will just have to 'eyeball' it or try to measure out in a quart jar. Just sharing as written out, play around with this, change up ingredients for salad, etc. Make it your own and enjoy! Thanks, Diana
