Hot and dry Saturday…

It is to be another warm humid day with only a meager hope for some rain.  I  talked with my sis in WV this morning.  They had severe thunderstorms yesterday evening and had some damage to their roof.  They did however get some much needed rain.

This is the kind of weather where I become lethargic.  I don’t have the energy or want to accomplish anything.  Yesterday I did force myself to clean the bathroom.

And another recipe for a hot day.

Layered 24 Hour Lettuce Salad

I love this salad but I hate to make it. Whenever we would have a family get together I would always ask my daughter to bring it.

• 1/2 head of lettuce, rinsed and patted dry then shredded
• whole green pepper (seeded and diced)
• 2 stalks celery (diced)
• 1 small onion (diced)
• frozen green peas about 1 cup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 8 ounce package shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup crumbled cooked bacon (cooked crisp)
• Seasoned croutons

Use 13X9 glass dish. Put the lettuce in first. Layer the next ingredients in order given. Top with the shredded cheese and the crumbled bacon. Mix the sour cream and mayo and spread over the ingredients in the dish. Top with the seasoned croutons. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Keep cool!  Stay safe and be happy!!
