24 HOUR LETTUCE SALAD

If you're looking for a good tasting, not all that fancy but fancy enough to serve company or take to a potluck this is the recipe. This recipe must be refrigerated overnight and do not use any other brand of mayonnaise except Hellman's. Skipping these two steps does make a difference. Make sure ingredients are sealed in good with the mayonnaise.

24-HOUR LAYERED SALAD



24-HOUR LAYERED SALAD image

Categories     Salad     Vegetable

Yield 8-10 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium head iceburg lettuce, rinsed, dried and torn
1 large head of romaine lettuce, rinsed, dried and torn
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup sliced radishes
1 cup diced green bell pepper (or combination of red, orange and yellow peppers)
1 cup green onions, thin sliced using some green tops if you like
2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
1 1/2 cups sliced black olives
2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
1-2 cups crisp bacon, crumbled
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (the good stuff, not the green can)
2 1/2 cups mayonnaise (Hellman's or Best Foods)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or a combination of cheddar and jack)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix the two lettuces together and layer a little more than about 1/2 of the lettuces in the bottom of a large deep casserole dish, or a big glass salad bowl that will allow your family to see the layers. Follow by sprinkling with layers of celery, radishes, bell pepper, green onion, mushrooms, peas, black olives, egg and bacon. Then, top the layers with the remaining lettuces. Prepare the dressing by whisking together the parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and sugar until they are well mixed. Then, carefully spread the dressing (like frosting), as evenly as possible over the top of the salad. Sprinkle with cheddar (and jack if using) cheese. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. This will serve about 8-10 people. Note: To make this a fun Mexican Style Layered Salad, use 2 teaspoons, or more to taste, red pepper sauce to the dressing, add 2 cups of niblet corn kernels, a cup of diced green chiles, and about three of four big handfuls of Fritos Corn Chips before layering on the finishing layer of lettuces. It is important to use the Fritos. They are thicker and will keep some crunch, but you can also use whatever your favorite tortilla chip makes you happiest.

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups chopped lettuce
Salt, pepper, sugar, paprika
6 hard cooked eggs, sliced
1 (10-ounce) package frozen peas, thawed
1 pound bacon crisp-cooked, drained, and crumbled
2 cups (8 ounce) shredded Swiss cheese

Tips:

  • Use a variety of lettuces for a more flavorful salad. Some good options include romaine, butterhead, and arugula.
  • Wash and dry the lettuce thoroughly before assembling the salad. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Cut the lettuce into small pieces. This will make it easier to eat and will help the dressing coat the lettuce more evenly.
  • Add a variety of toppings to your salad. Some good options include croutons, bacon, cheese, and hard-boiled eggs.
  • Use a light dressing. A heavy dressing will weigh down the salad and make it less refreshing.
  • Serve the salad immediately after assembling it. This will prevent the lettuce from wilting.
