Southern 7 Layer Salad

Directions

1. 1
   Fill a large bowl with the shredded Ice Berg Lettuce (Do not substitute anything else, otherwise it will get mushy).
2. 2
   Layer the carrots on top of the lettuce.
3. 3
   Then layer in the defrosted peas.
4. 4
   Over the peas layer in the onions.
5. 5
   Then completely seal the whole salad with a thick whole egg mayonnaise. Mound the mayonnaise in the middle of the salad and spread to the outside of the bowl, like icing a cake. It is important to remember to completely seal the bowl with mayonnaise in order for the flavors to blend properly.
6. 6
   On top of the mayonnaise spread the shredded cheese around the outside of the bowl (in a ring).
7. 7
   Then spread the bacon bits around in the middle. Don't use real bacon because you need the strong flavor and crunch of the soy-based Bacon Bits.
8. 8
   Tightly seal with plastic wrap let it sit in the fridge overnight or up to 24 hours before serving.
9. 9
   Leftover salad is great the next day.
