This has been a summer staple in our family for about 30 years-where it originally came from, I don't know. My Mom & I have been avid cooks since I was a child and we both collect recipes from everywhere & fool around ourselves,quite a bit. You can use boiled ham from the deli and canned bacon bits for no cooking at all. It's also very easy to expand the recipe for pot lucks, parties, or a buffet. Ingredients:
5 ounces fresh spinach, in small pieces |
salt & pepper |
1/2 tablespoon sugar |
6 hard-boiled eggs, chopped |
1/2 lb boiled ham, cut in julienne strips |
1 head lettuce, shredded |
10 ounces frozen peas, thawed |
1 pint mayonnaise |
1 pint sour cream |
1/2 lb swiss cheese, cut in julienne strips |
1/2 lb bacon, cooked & crumbled |
Directions:
1. In a large glass bowl, layer in order as listed in the ingredient list spinach through peas.
2. Mix together the mayonaise& the sour cream& frost over the top.
3. Cover with plastic wrap& refrigerate 6-8 hrs or overnight.
4. Top with the swiss cheese& then the bacon bits.
5. (I've used non-fat sour cream& lo-fat mayo or soy mayo- and it's been fine) I love this on a hot summer day w/ a loaf of crusty Italian bread!
