Best 6 Mini Layered Salad Recipes

MINI LAYERED SALAD

Steps:

• Line a 3-cup serving dish with lettuce. Layer with the onion, green pepper, celery, carrot and peas. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and ranch dressing mix; spread over the top. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.

LAYERED SALAD

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.

SEVEN LAYER SALAD

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Crumble and set aside.
• In a large flat bowl, place the chopped lettuce and top with a layer of onion, peas, shredded cheese, cauliflower and bacon.
• Prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, sugar and Parmesan cheese. Drizzle over salad and refrigerate until chilled.

MINI 7 LAYER DIPS

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix refried beans and 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix. Spread about 3 tablespoons mixture in bottom of each of ten 6-oz custard cups or 9-oz clear plastic cups.
• Mix sour cream and green chiles; divide evenly among cups (about 2 tablespoons per cup). Top each with about 2 tablespoons each guacamole and salsa, slightly less than 1 tablespoon each cheese and lettuce, and a few olive slices.

MINI EIGHT-LAYER DIPS

Steps:

• Make the refried black-eyed peas: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute 30 seconds. Add the black-eyed peas, vegetable stock, chili powder and cumin. Mash the mixture with a potato masher. Simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Make the guacamole: Peel, pit and mash the avocados in a medium bowl. Add the lime juice, onion, cilantro, hot sauce, salt and garlic. Mash to desired consistency.
• To finish: Layer the refried black-eyed peas in eight 6-ounce jars, followed by the guacamole, sour cream, salsa, cheese, green onions, tomatoes and olives. Serve with the tortilla strip chips.

SEVEN LAYER GREEN SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Chop or tear up lettuce and place in 9 x 13 dish
• Chop up celery and add on top of lettuce. Add a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Chop hard boiled eggs and add on top. Again, add a light amount of salt and pepper.
• Crush bacon and add on top of eggs.
• Add chopped tomatoes and green onions, then top with 2 cups cheese.
• Pour on 10 ounces partially frozen peas. (I just let the frozen peas set out while I'm preparing this dish. The peas will thaw enough by the time it's time to eat.)
• Stir together mayo and sour cream. Mix well. Spread on top of the frozen peas. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. (I used cheddar, but Parmesan would be delicious too!)
