    7-layer Salad

    Recipe Introduction


    This is really pretty in a glass bowl!

    Okay, this may be more than 7 layers, but you can really adjust this salad for your family's taste.

    List of Ingredients




    Layer in this order...

    1 head of lettuce, shredded

    (Salt and pepper the lettuce a little)

    1 small can sliced water chestnuts, drained

    1/2 cup diced onions

    1/4 cup diced green bell pepper

    1/4 cup diced red bell pepper

    1 layer sliced cucumbers (1/2 c to 1 c, depending on your taste)

    1 package frozen peas (cook in microwave 1 min. less than it says to on package). Let peas cool completely before putting on salad. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!!

    1 cup (more or less) of mayonnaise. Spread on COOLED peas.

    Recipe



    Sprinkle about a tablespoon of sugar on mayo - evenly all the way around (make sure you sprinkle this all over it, not just in one spot.).

    OPTIONAL:

    Sprinkle shredded cheese on top, and I like to add a little bit of bacon bits, not a whole lot though.

    Cover and put in fridge. It's better when chilled overnight.

    Before serving, make sure that everyone sees how pretty the salad layers are (wink), then mix it up and serve.
