Thought of another favorite dish from days gone by to have for dinner. It is called a seven layer salad.
Easy peasy to make and very good. You can substitute other ingredients and add what you like, of course.
And it is good the next day as a leftover as well.
I remember at our family gatherings and church dinners always having this salad.
It was a favorite then, and still is today.
Every tried it before?

I don't think I have ever had that particular one but a layered salad yes.

I almost love it. I’ll take a five-layer salad, because I’m allergic to bacon and peas. (I know, who invited me? 
)
Yep, the ol’ 7-layer salad is a southern staple.

Yes, it is very good when the lettuce is not iceberg, and the Romaine isn't infected with E. coli or listeria. I am very picky about lettuce.

@CarolDM We had a garden as well. It was really my grandfather's (we lived under the same roof). We lived in suburban Philly, and did not need a vegetable garden. But, since Pop was the son of a farmer, and the 1970s weren't too far removed from the World Wars, I think this was kind of like a Victory Garden for him.

That looks delicious and tempting. I love salads but all ingredients there should be veg. Looking at it I am tempted to make one for me soon. It must be very filling and so yummy and healthy
