Great make ahead salad for family dinner or company. This is the basic recipe I was given 35 years ago. You can change it by adding or omitting ingredients to suit your tastes. It's delicious like this, but I've added sliced olives and omitted the water chestnuts and it's delicious this way, too. Read more . I wouldn't recommend omitting the bacon, eggs, or tomatoes.
