Ingredients

1 pound bacon
1 large head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped
1 red onion, chopped
1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas, thawed
10 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup chopped cauliflower
1.25 cups mayonnaise
0.67 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons white sugar

Instructions

Start by gathering all of your ingredients.
Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy and evenly browned, approximately 10 minutes. Place the cooked bacon on paper towels to drain excess grease, then crumble and set aside.
Assemble the salad by layering chopped lettuce in a large glass dish or bowl, followed by red onion, peas, shredded cheese, cauliflower, and crumbled bacon.
Prepare the creamy dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, and sugar in a mixing bowl until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing evenly over the salad layers and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled before serving.
Serve chilled and enjoy this layered salad masterpiece!
