Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 cups chopped iceberg lettuce
  • 2 cups frozen peas, thawed and dried well
  • 3/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1 pint (3 cups) cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 10-12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 3/4 cup mayo
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)


Instructions

  1. Whisk together the dressing ingredients until smooth, then cover and refrigerate until needed.
  2. Layer the chopped, fully dry lettuce in the bottom of a wide glass bowl or trifle dish.
  3. Next, evenly layer the peas, green onions, tomatoes, and chopped eggs over the lettuce.
  4. Spread the dressing over the salad to seal it completely, using as much as you prefer and reserving some for serving on the side.
  5. Finish by topping with the shredded cheese and crumbled bacon.
  6. When serving, scoop straight down to capture all the layers, and offer additional dressing on the side.

Notes

For added flavor, consider using a mix of different kinds of lettuce.
This salad can be prepared a few hours in advance; just add the dressing right before serving.
