8-Layer Salad

If you like the recipes I've saved, feel free to follow me. I love cast iron- restoring, collecting and using it, so I actively look for recipes that utilize cast iron in the preparation (though of course you don't really need special recipes for cast iron). I also love my Instant Pot pressure cooker, so I look for recipes specific to that as well. I'm a huge fan of skinnytaste.com, so I frequently add those as well.

For 2024 Easter at Beth’s: one head of iceberg, two long but skinny carrots, about 1-1/2 c peas, 6 or 7 slices of bacon (added those to the top just before serving), the eggs (6 or 7?)- use one of those old fashioned slicers because the knife didn't work well. I used pretty much the full amount of cheese (2cups?), a pkg of grape tomatoes. Remember to put the eggs higher up and make to just use whole grape tomatoes. We didn’t toss it beforehand, just let people take what they want.

6 slices bacon

4 to 5 cups chopped iceberg lettuce (about 1 head)

2 cups frozen peas, thawed

2 cups shredded carrots (about 6)

4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and sliced

2 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed

2 cups shredded Cheddar, mozzarella and/or Monterey jack cheese

2 cups cherry or baby heirloom tomatoes, halved
