Much like your typical layered salad in a trifle bowl, this one is just as delicious, but easier to get to all of the goodies!
1 head iceberg lettuce
1/4 cup chopped purple onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped, fresh mushrooms
12 oz. package frozen peas, thawed
2 cups real mayonnaise
2 T. sugar or honey
1/4 lb. grated cheddar cheese
1 lb. lower-sodium bacon, fried, crumbled
Remove core from head of lettuce. Cut head into quarters. Carefully seperate the lettuce layers. Put half of them in the bottom of a 9 x 13, glass cake pan.
Top with half of the onion, half of the celery, half of the green pepper, half of the mushrooms, and half of the frozen (thawed) peas.
Combine the mayo with the sugar. Spread half of the mayo mixture over the salad.
Top with half of the cheese and half of the bacon.
Repeat with another salad layer, starting with lettuce and ending with bacon.
Cover cake pan tightly with foil. Place in refrigerator and chill for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours. Cut into 8 to 12 square pieces. Salt and pepper to taste.
