The most requested salad...by everybody else!

As long as I can remember, my mom has been asked to make this salad for family gatherings.  It's easy, and everybody seems to enjoy it.  Everybody but me!  Growing up, lettuce & I never had a strong relationship.  Over the past few years, I've basically forced myself to eat lettuce.  Sometimes I even enjoy a salad, but the lettuce has to be covered in cheese, meat, eggs, and about 1/4 teaspoon of dressing.  So while I have formed a tenuous relationship with lettuce, I still refuse mayonnaise.  But for all of you who love all of these things, here's a great recipe for you!

Layered Lettuce Salad

Ingredients:


1-2 bags of lettuce
2 c. frozen peas, thawed
4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
2 c. Kraft Mayo
2 Tbsp. sugar
Shredded cheddar cheese
Crumbled bacon
Here's the secret ingredient: Kraft REAL Mayo.  Don't use anything else! (Or so I've been told...)
Put lettuce in bottom of a 9x13 pan. Layer thawed peas & chopped eggs on top.
Mix sugar with mayo & spread over layers like frosting. Sprinkle cheese & bacon on top.  Refrigerate.
