Seven-Layer Salad

Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 2 cups spring salad mix
  • 1 bunch scallions, trimmed, then coarsely chopped (use all but the toughest of the green ends)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and cut into medium-sized pieces (a generous 1 cup)
  • 16 ounces frozen/defrosted green peas
  • 2 cups Duke’s low-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 10 slices low-sodium bacon, cooked, drained and crumbled

Instructions

  1. Create even layers of the following ingredients, placing them, in order, in a 9-by-13-inch serving dish (or individual dishes of equal volume): the spring salad mix, scallions, green bell pepper and peas.
  2. Whisk the mayonnaise in a medium bowl to make it evenly creamy and smooth. Use an offset spatula to spread it evenly over the mixture, making sure to completely cover the vegetables.
  3. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top, then the bacon. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Add hard boiled eggs.
