lettuce

We enjoyed this recipe last night. It's got crunch, lots of sauce and a nice flavour (although Jon and I both said that next time we'd add hot sauce for a little more kick).  Thought I'd pass it on...

In 9x13 pan, layer the following:

  • 1 head lettuce (broken up)
  • 1/2 green pepper (slivered)
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 10 oz. frozen peas (cooked and cooled)
  • 1 cup Weight Watchers Mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup bacon bits (or 6-7 slices crisp bacon)

Refrigerate for 12-24 hours.

This salad is quite popular around here.  I like the taste a lot, but don't know how you can reduce the amount of Miracle Whip.  (It tastes great, but seems like a lot of dressing.)

Base:

  • 1 large head of Romaine lettuce

Dressing:

  • 1/2 cup salad or olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • 1 clove of garlic, cut into quarters

Topping:
