It is quick to fix, keeps well, and goes along with corn on the cob, BBQ chicken (or anything like that) and only requires a spot on your plate. To keep it cold outdoors, set the pan on a bed of crushed ice.<\/p>\n<p>Layer the following in order using a 9\u00d713 pan.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>lettuce &#8211; chopped or shredded &#8211; iceberg works well for this<\/li>\n<li>onion &#8211; chopped (both red and green\/spring onions are okay and add color)<\/li>\n<li>green bell pepper &#8211; diced &#8211; you might want to use the other color sweet peppers in this<\/li>\n<li>celery &#8211; chopped<\/li>\n<li>green peas &#8211; fresh if you can get them; otherwise, thaw a small bag of frozen peas<\/li>\n<li>dressing &#8211; mayonnaise &#8211; about 1.5 cup<\/li>\n<li>cheddar cheese &#8211; shredded &#8211; be generous with this<\/li>\n<li>bacon &#8211; nice crispy bacon, cut into 2&#8243; pieces and cooked to crips<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Do NOT mix it together before serving. Just provide a big spoon for people to dish it up onto their plates. Salt and pepper are NOT in this mix at all.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the simplest thing to put together, along with potato salad.
