This recipe reminds me of the old dinner on the ground picnics from church during my childhood! It is a fruit version of the ever popular 7-Layer Salad. It should be made at least 8 hours ahead of time. It features oranges, apples and grapes atop a bed of shredded lettuce. Prep time and cooking time does not include the 8 hour chilling time! From Jack Reynolds in the Master Gardner Cookbook Ingredients:
2 cups iceberg lettuce, shredded, well-drained and dry |
2 navel oranges |
2 golden delicious apples, unpeeled and thinly sliced |
2 cups green seedless grapes |
1/3 cup mayonnaise |
1/3 cup sour cream |
1 cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded (4 oz) |
Directions:
1. Place the shredded lettuce in a deep 2-quart glass serving bowl.
2. Peel and section the oranges over a bowl, reserving the juice. Combine apple slices and orange juice; toss to coat. Layer apple slices over the lettuce; top with the orange sections and grapes.
3. Combine mayonnaise and sour cream in a small bowl; stir well. Spread mayonnaise mixture over salad, sealing to the edge of the bowl. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
