7-Layer Salad

Salad Ingredients:

1 head iceberg lettuce, cored and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cucumber, seeded and sliced
1 cup very small frozen peas, rinsed and drained
1 and 1/2 cups thinly sliced celery
1 med. red onion, very thinly sliced  (or 4 scallions, thinly sliced)
8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 lb. lean bacon, cooked nice and crisp, crumbled or snipped into little pieces
hard-boiled eggs, chopped (optional)

Dressing Ingredients:

2 cups mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
1/2 cup sour cream OR 1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt (adjust to taste)

Assembling Directions:

Layer first 5 ingredients, one at a time, in a large clear glass bowl or a clear glass 9x13-inch dish so you can see each layer.  Don't mix the ingredients. 

Mix the dressing ingredients together and pour evenly over the salad in the bowl/dish.

Add a layer of grated cheese, and top with bacon pieces.
