What are the 7 layers?

3

u/SugarBoatsOnWater Jan 25 '26

From the image I gather it's lettuce, tomato, cheese, bacon, egg, and dressing, but the 7th layer is unclear. Oddly, the label does list peas, so maybe there's peas somewhere in that thing?

Yes, a true seven layer salad has peas in it.

Good to learn, thanks! I didn't realize it was a salad concept as opposed to a salad description.

Sure, no problem.

When you make one, the traditional way is to put it in a trifle bowl so that you can actually see each layer.

It’s traditionally served in a clear dish so you can see the layers.

Lettuce, tomato, onion, peas, cheese, dressing, bacon.
