Steps:
- For the salad: In a clear glass bowl, layer the salad ingredients in the order they appear above, concentrating the ingredients around the perimeter of the bowl and filling in any gaps in the center with lettuce as needed. Start with a good layer of iceberg on the bottom, followed by the tomato wedges, spinach and Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs. Sprinkle the egg layer generously with salt and pepper. Layer on the bacon, green onions and Cheddar, and end with the peas.
- For the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream and sugar in a small bowl and mix well.
- Pour the dressing over the top of the peas and spread evenly, bringing the dressing all the way out to the edges of the bowl. Sprinkle with the dill and parsley. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
- Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and allow the eggs to sit in the water for 20 minutes. Drain off the water and add ice to the pan on top of the eggs. Set aside to chill.
MEXICAN LAYERED SALAD
This sounds like a light, Mexican version of the classic Seven-Layered Salad. You could add black beans, chicken breast, or other protein to make it more filling, if you wanted to serve it as a main-course salad. I think a mixture of sour cream and mayo would also be good in the dressing, and I think sliced olives would be nice on top, too.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. - If you don't have taco seasoning, you can make your own by combining chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. - Be sure to brown the ground beef thoroughly before adding it to the salad. This will help to develop the flavor. - Don't overcook the pasta. It should be al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. - Layer the salad in a large bowl or individual serving bowls. Start with a layer of tortilla chips, then add the ground beef, pasta, beans, corn, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese. - Serve the salad with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or hot sauce.Conclusion:
