Weeping Lettuce Salad
List of Ingredients
Weeping Salad
Cane River Cuisine - Svc. League, Natchitoches, Inc.
1 head lettuce
mayonnaise
1 red onion, sliced
sugar
1 can English peas, (16 oz), drained
Swiss cheese
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Tear some of the lettuce into small pieces and place in a large salad bowl. Spread enough mayonnaise on
lettuce to cover. Slice a red onion and put a few slices on the lettuce. Sprinkle a little sugar over the onions. Put
some of the peas over this and top with small slices of Swiss cheese [or grated]. Repeat layers until everything
is used. Put foil or a light cover over the bowl and refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It must sit this long. Do not use
dressing on this salad. The sugar makes the onions weep and the juice mixes with the mayonnaise to make its
own dressing. Before serving, sprinkle with crumbled bacon.
Serves 6 to 8. Recipe
