Weeping Salad

Ingredients

Dressing

• 1 head lettuce
• mayonnaise
• 1 red onion, sliced
• sugar
• 1 (16 oz) can English peas, drained
• Swiss cheese
• 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
   

Method

Tear some of the lettuce into small pieces and place in a large salad bowl. Spread enough mayonnaise on lettuce to cover. Slice a red onion and put a few slices on the lettuce. Sprinkle a little sugar over the onions. Put some of the peas over this and top with small slices of Swiss cheese or you can grate it. Repeat layers until everything is used. Put foil or light cover over the bowl and refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It must sit this long. Do not use dressing on this salad. The sugar makes the onions weep and the juice mixes with the mayonnaise to make it's own dressing. Before serving, sprinkle with crumbled bacon.
