Layered Lettuce Salad

July 10

Wonderful for a summer barbeque when you’re feeding lots of hungry mouths. icon smile Layered Lettuce Salad
Recipe from Ptelea

1 head lettuce, washed
1 cup celery, diced
4 eggs, hard cooked and diced
1 – 300 g package frozen peas (not cooked) – I think I use about ¾ of a cup.
½ cup green or red pepper, diced
1 sweet onion, medium size, diced
8 slices bacon, fried and crumbled
2 cups mayonnaise
2 tbsp. sugar
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups croutons

Tear lettuce into small pieces and put in 9 x 12″ dish. Layer the rest in the order given. Add sugar to mayonnaise and mix well. Spread over top as frosting. Top with cheese. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight. Do not mix. Sprinkle with croutons just before serving. I also waited until just before serving to put the cheese on.

  • "Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." — C.S. Lewis
