Pretty Layered Overnight Salad
Time: 20 minutes prep + Chilling overnight in the fridge
Yield: 15 servings
Recipe adapted from my mother in law Jill Eskelson
***NOTE: This salad also works well in a 9×13 pan. Just layer the lettuce, green onions, bacon, and eggs. Spread the dressing over the top and sprinkle with cheese.***
10 strips bacon
8 eggs
8 C chopped romaine lettuce (about 2 hearts or 1 head)
2 C peas
6 green onions
3 C cheddar cheese
Dressing:
2 C mayonnaise
2 t sugar
dash salt and pepper
1. Cook up your bacon. Crumble it all up once it has cooled down.
2. Boil your eggs. Place them in cold ice water to cool them down. Then peel and slice them.
3. Chop up your lettuce and green onions.
4. Mix all dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
5. Layer half the lettuce, green onions, peas and bacon in the bottom of a pretty glass dish.
6. Layer the eggs carefully over the top.
7. Spread half of the dressing over the eggs and sprinkle with half of the cheese.
8. Repeat the layers. Cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.
