Ingredients

  • 1 head iceberg lettuce
  • 1 bunch green onion
  • 4 -5 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 (10 ounce) box frozen peas
  • 1 -1 12 cup swiss cheese (I like to use lots of cheese)
  • 8 slices thickly sliced bacon (the cheap stuff just dosen't crumble and leaves you with too much fat)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise

Method

  • Cook the bacon until crunchy, drain and crumble into bacon bits.
  • Wash, dry, and chop the lettuce and celery.
  • Slice the green onions into tiny rings leaving out the white stalk.
  • In small bowl mix the sourcream and mayonnaise until well blended and smooth.
  • In large glass bowl layer lettuce, then celery, then frozen peas, then green onions.
  • Top with mayonnaise mixture, followed by swiss cheese and crumbled bacon pieces.
  • This salad should be made ahead of time to insure that the flavors have a chance to mingle and the peas thaw.
  • Sometimes I do it over night but it can be done in as short as 3 hours if you soak the peas in water before adding them.
