Aunt Mary's Layered Salad Reviews

  • A definate winner, everyone loved it and said it was the best salad they had ever had. Just watch how much you eat the fat content is HIGH

  • I sometimes use shredded carrots and broccoli. I also use green onions. This is my Aunt Marys traditional holiday salad, you cant go wrong with this one. Put it in a trifle bowl, looks great.

  • This is my husbands favorite salad & I had not made it in years because I lost the recipe. Now it is in my cyber-file & ready for those hot summer nights. Thanks

  • Very fattening, yes, but very good.

  • This was a nice salad and looked very pretty in the bowl. I think next time though I am going to add something to flavor the mayo a little bit.

  • This is great I used only 1/2 lb. bacon because I used turkey bacon (no extra fat to drain off, so you have more bacon). As a time saver, I used a bag of ready-to-eat chopped Romaine lettuce. I subtituted 1/2 cup sliced green onions instead of a regular one (for milder taste - just a personal preference), 1 chopped red bell pepper instead of peas (to give it color), no cheese (to lower the fat), and 3/4 cups reduced fat Ranch dressing insead of mayonnaise. Layered with lettuce , cauliflower, red bell pepper, green onions, turkey bacon, and dressing. Its key to let this sit overnight so that the flavors meld. Thanks for the recipe

  • Some good stuff. for salad lovers this will do fine. i personally,as my #1 fav. salad, think greek salad is best but this comes close after.

  • Its wonderful I took this to my family reunion and they loved it.

  • A basic version of the popular 7 layer salad, or 24 hour salad. You can ramp up the dressing by adding wine vinegar and a little sugar to the mayo. Its even better if you let it sit for several hours or overnight.
