Steps:

• Place eggs in a large saucepan and completely cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cover and remove from heat. Let stand for 12 minutes. Remove eggs and chill.
• In a 9x13 inch dish, layer the lettuce, onion, water chestnuts and peas.
• In a medium bowl combine the mayonnaise, sugar, seasoned salt and garlic powder. Mix until smooth. Spread over the top evenly over the top of the peas. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Peel and chop hard-cooked eggs.
• Remove salad from refrigerator and top with the bacon, eggs and tomato. Serve.

Steps:

• For the salad: In a clear glass bowl, layer the salad ingredients in the order they appear above, concentrating the ingredients around the perimeter of the bowl and filling in any gaps in the center with lettuce as needed. Start with a good layer of iceberg on the bottom, followed by the tomato wedges, spinach and Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs. Sprinkle the egg layer generously with salt and pepper. Layer on the bacon, green onions and Cheddar, and end with the peas.
• For the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream and sugar in a small bowl and mix well.
• Pour the dressing over the top of the peas and spread evenly, bringing the dressing all the way out to the edges of the bowl. Sprinkle with the dill and parsley. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
• Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and allow the eggs to sit in the water for 20 minutes. Drain off the water and add ice to the pan on top of the eggs. Set aside to chill.

Steps:

• Layer lettuce, onions, peas and ham in large straight-sided clear glass bowl.
• Mix mayo, Parmesan and sugar; spread over salad to seal. Refrigerate several hours or up to 24 hours.
• Top with cheddar and tomatoes just before serving; toss gently.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, layer salad with vegetables and ingredients in order given.
• Chill 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• This salad is best eaten, shortly after being made.
• Serves 8.
• Note: Sometimes I substitute 1-(8 oz.) can of well drained bamboo shoots for the sliced cucumbers. Just be sure to blot the bamboo shoots with paper toweling before placing them on the salad.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Cut the bread into bite-sized chunks and toss with the olive oil and some seasoning. Put onto a well-oiled baking tray and sprinkle on the grated Parmesan - try to get it on the bread as much as possible, rather than the tray, or it will stick. Cook for 10-12 mins until golden and crisp. Remove and cool.
• Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for about 8 mins, then add the green beans and cook for about 2-3 mins more until both are tender. Drain and cool under cold running water, then set aside. Mix all the dressing ingredients with some seasoning and pour into the bottom of a large, deep container or bowl.
• Layer up the salad on top of the dressing, starting with the potatoes, then the green beans, the salad leaves, the shaved Parmesan and finally the croutons. It is important to layer the salad in this order to stop the leaves wilting or the croutons going soggy. Chill until ready to go. To serve, toss all the ingredients together.

Steps:

• For each salad, use a 4- to 5-cup container. In each container, layer ingredients in this order: 1 1/2 cups lettuce, 1 cup broccoli slaw, 1/4 cup bell peppers, 1/4 cup crabmeat, 1 egg, 1/4 cup cheese strips and 1/4 cup cucumber strips. Drizzle 1/4 cup dressing over each salad. Sprinkle with chives. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours.
• To serve, toss salads.
