SEVEN LAYER SALAD

SEVEN LAYER SALAD

Shopping List
2 bags slaw mix or 1 head white cabbage, shredded
1+1⁄2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (may use 3⁄4 cup crumbled bleu cheese) 
1 green or red bell pepper, seeded and diced
3⁄4 head cauliflower, chopped or thinly sliced
1⁄2 red onion, finely chopped
1 pound bacon, freshly cooked until crispy and large crumbled
2 cups cooked boneless chicken breast, shredded or cubed
DRESSING
2 cups mayonnaise
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar substitute
1 teaspoon Beau Monde seasoning (available in spice section of market)
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: large, clear glass “Trifle” or salad bowl

Directions
1. Add the dressing ingredients to a bowl and mix well.
2. Toss the cabbage with the dressing and place in the bottom of the bowl as the first layer followed in order by the cheese, peppers, cauliflower, onion, bacon and chicken. Serve from the bottom up so the dressing from the cabbage reaches the other ingredients. Yes, use salad servers and it WILL serve easily from the bottom up without making a mess--I Promise!

You may leave the chicken out if using this salad as a side dish and this salad can be made the day before as it keeps well for several days refrigerated. A cheese grater works perfectly to chop the cauliflower into tiny pieces!
NOTE: This is more like a cole slaw than a lettuce salad and you NEED to mix in the dressing. Therefore it is not recommended to put the dressing on the side.
