This is a substantial layered salad designed to be prepared a day in advance. Ingredients including chopped lettuce, hard-boiled eggs, thawed green peas, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese are assembled in a specific order in a glass bowl. The layers are seasoned and topped with mayonnaise before an extended chilling period of 24 to 48 hours, which allows the flavours to meld. It is finished with a garnish of chopped green onion just before serving.

Ingredients

1 head lettuce, chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
6 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas, thawed
1 lb bacon, cooked, drained and crumbled
16 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup green onion, chopped

Method

Arrange 3 cups of the chopped lettuce across the base of a large glass bowl.
Evenly scatter the sugar, salt, and pepper over the lettuce layer.
Place the sliced hard-boiled eggs in a layer on top of the seasoned lettuce.
Continue building the salad by adding layers of the thawed peas, the rest of the lettuce, the crumbled bacon, and finally the shredded cheddar cheese.
Use a spatula to spread the cup of mayonnaise evenly over the very top of the salad, sealing it.
Place the bowl in the refrigerator to chill for 24 to 48 hours.
Just before serving, sprinkle the chopped green onions over the surface as a garnish.
