SEVEN LAYER VEGETABLE SALAD

Seven layer salad is a classic that has been around for many years.  My family has made this salad for as long as I can remember.

Seven Layer Salad is one of my favorites. Perfect for any gathering and everyone loves it. Make it in advance and enjoy it the next day. This is a very versatile salad, as you can add anything you like to it. A quick and easy dish to add to any buffet, holiday meal or just make it because your family likes it.  This salad won’t last long and is one you will make over and over again.

Ingredients for seven layer salad:

1/2 head iceberg lettuce coarsely chopped

1 cup chopped celery

1 cup chopped green pepper
