Weeping Salad

This layered salad makes its own dressing with the mayonnaise, sugar, onions, and flavors of the ingredients.

Ingredients:

• 1 head lettuce
• mayonnaise
• 1 medium purple onion or sweet onion, sliced
• sugar
• 1 can English peas, (16 oz), drained, or use cooked frozen peas
• shredded Swiss or Cheddar cheese
• 3 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled

Preparation:

Tear some of the lettuce into small pieces and place in a large salad bowl. Spoon and spread enough mayonnaise on lettuce to cover, as desired. Slice onion and put a few slices on the lettuce. Sprinkle a little sugar over the onions. Put some of the peas over this and top with part of the shredded cheese. Repeat layers of lettuce, mayonnaise, sliced onion, sugar, peas, and shredded cheese until all are used. Put foil or other cover over the bowl and refrigerate about 2 hours. The sugar makes the onions weep and the juice mixes with the mayonnaise to make its own dressing. Before serving, sprinkle with crumbled bacon.
Serves 6 to 8.
