Pretty Layered Salad Food

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.

PRETTY & AWESOME, LAYERED SALAD !

Steps:

• 1. Layer above ingredients in glass bowl being sure to have enough of first 9 ingredients to make a full layer to fit in your size bowl. It should look very attractive from the outside. I slice or chop or cut mine rather large so they are forkable and viewable.
• 2. Place the meat you choose on top of vegetables.
• 3. Spread with enough MAYONAISE (not salad dressing) to spread 1/2 inch or more making a full layer.
• 4. sprinkle sugar or splenda on top of mayonaise .
• 5. sprinkle cajun seasoning as much as you like on top of this (I use a liberal amount but you can still see through it)
• 6. put all cheese on top (this is home grated cheese not out of bag)
• 7. sprinkle with crumbled bacon.
• 8. cover and refridgerate at least 2 hours before serving but over night is even better !
