Seven Layer Potato Salad

"A new twist on the old favorite Seven Layer Salad, based on potato salad rather than the usual iceberg lettuce for something a bit more substantial. Bacon, eggs, peas, and cheese are traditional in a Seven Layer, but a little bite from radishes, onions, and a few surprise ingredients makes this one a little more interesting."

  • Mix dressing ingredients together, refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Cook bacon crisp, crumble, and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, cut potatoes in halves or quarters to get bite sized pieces. Boil in well salted water until fork tender. Allow to cool slightly, and mix with half of the dressing.
  • Hard boil eggs, allow to cool, remove shells.
  • Assemble the salad in a trifle dish or other clear straight sided bowl. Place potatoes on bottom, followed by peas, bacon, onions, the other half of the dressing, cheese, sliced or crumbled eggs, and radishes.

  2. one of the best potatoe salad I have ever come acrossed....it is a meal in itself...wonderful flavor ..I did omit the garlic this time and the flavor is still excellent...
     
  3. I scaled this down and made in a small trifle glass. It was perfect for one person. I used veggie bacon and really enjoyed all the flavors. Thanks! And good luck!
     
  4. Neat idea! Enjoyed the crunch of the radishes, DH enjoyed having the peas in the salad, all together very tasty. Made and reviewed for the Craze-E Contest Spring 2009.
     
  5. I love the traditional layered salad made with lettuce, so thought this was a wonderful idea. Just as easy to put together too. In hindsight, I should have used yellow cheddar instead of the white. Would have had better colour. I didn't however care too much for the dressing. Not sure why, as I love all the ingredients. I will make this again, but will change the dressing somewhat. Thanks for submitting to the contest, and good luck.

I work in the lab of a large county hospital. Cooking, particularly exotic ethnic cuisines and fancy desserts is my therapy and stress relief. Being a geeky kind of person, I'm really into the science of food. I'm getting into playing cooking games and contests on 'Zaar. Why not come play with us? It's lots of fun. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/teambanner1.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/babes_banner.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSCParticipationBanner.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/ParticipationBanner.jpg"border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/Dollar%20Contest/DiningonaDollarParticipant.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/banner2009.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"width=100%> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/craze-e2banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/calendar%20clips/3Craze-E.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
