LAYERED PEA SALAD ALA VIRGINIA
BLAGMAN
 
8 oz. shredded lettuce
6 oz. chopped fine celery
6 oz. chopped fine onions
8 oz. can LeSueur tiny English peas
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 c. Hellmann's mayonnaise
1 c. sour cream
4-6 oz. grated sharp Cheddar cheese
3-4 slices crisp bacon, crumbled

In a deep glass dish (loaf or casserole size) spread layer of shredded lettuce. Then add layer of mixed chopped celery and onions. Next drain peas and mix with salt, pepper and onion powder. Spread seasoned peas over celery and onions.

Thoroughly blend mayonnaise with sour cream and spread over peas. Top with a layer of the grated cheese and crumbled bacon mixed together. This salad is delicious and looks pretty seen in layers through the glass. It can be made a day ahead and chilled overnight in the refrigerator.
