Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Iceberg lettuce
- 1 medium Red onion
- 2 cups Frozen green peas
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices Cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes (halved)
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the iceberg lettuce. Chop it into bite-sized pieces and spread evenly at the bottom of a large glass bowl or trifle dish.
Peel and thinly slice the red onion into rings, and layer the slices evenly on top of the lettuce.
Evenly sprinkle the frozen green peas (no need to thaw) over the onion layer.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and granulated sugar until smooth to create the dressing.
Spread the dressing evenly over the peas layer, ensuring it reaches the edges to 'seal' the salad.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the dressing layer.
Add the crumbled bacon over the cheese layer for a smoky, savory flavor.
Top the salad with halved cherry tomatoes for a burst of color and freshness.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled by scooping down through all the layers to ensure every serving contains a bit of each ingredient. Enjoy!
