Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic 7-Layer Salad.
Step 1
Start by taking a 9x13-inch casserole dish and gently layer the torn lettuce across the bottom, creating a fresh and vibrant base for your salad.
Step 2
Next, sprinkle the chopped cucumber evenly over the lettuce, adding a refreshing crunch.
Step 3
Then, spread the thawed peas on top of the cucumber, followed by a generous layer of shredded Cheddar cheese that melts beautifully into the mix.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to add some protein—arrange the sliced hard-boiled eggs on top of the cheese, creating a lovely visual contrast.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together your creamy salad dressing, a touch of white sugar, and a splash of white vinegar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Drizzle this delicious dressing evenly over the egg layer, making sure every slice is coated.
Step 7
To finish off this delightful salad, crumble the crispy cooked bacon over the dressing, adding a savory touch that ties all the flavors together.
Step 8
Enjoy the colorful layers and the delightful combination of textures in every bite!.
