Who doesn't love the classic 7-Layer salad? Bacon, lettuce, mayo, cheese... yum! Well, I wanted to revamp that concept a bit by adding and changing a few things, leaving some the same, but topping it all with a kicked up homemade dressing. Read more This salad is best chilled over night! See less

To assemble salad

- Sprinkle with cheese and add a lil additional bacon and onions, if desired.
