Ingredients

  • 6 cups Romaine lettuce
  • 1 medium Red bell pepper
  • 1 medium Cucumber
  • 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
  • 0.5 medium Red onion
  • 1 cup Frozen peas
  • 4 large Hard-boiled eggs
  • 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup Cooked bacon
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the romaine lettuce. Chop into bite-sized pieces and layer it evenly at the bottom of a large, clear glass bowl.

Step 2

Dice the red bell pepper and create an even layer on top of the chopped lettuce.

Step 3

Peel the cucumber, slice it thinly, and add it as the next layer.

Step 4

Halve the cherry tomatoes and arrange them on top of the cucumber layer.

Step 5

Finely slice the red onion and sprinkle it across the tomatoes to form the next layer.

Step 6

Take the frozen peas directly from the bag (do not cook them) and scatter them evenly on top of the onion layer.

Step 7

Chop the hard-boiled eggs into quarters or slices and layer them neatly over the peas.

Step 8

Shred the sharp cheddar cheese if it isn’t pre-shredded, and sprinkle it evenly as the penultimate layer.

Step 9

Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it generously over the cheese layer.

Step 10

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and granulated sugar until smooth. Spread this dressing mixture evenly over the top of the layered ingredients, covering the entire surface as a 'seal.'

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.

Step 12

Cover the salad with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully chill and allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 13

Serve chilled with a long spoon, ensuring to scoop through all the layers for the perfect bite.
