You may also find that adding criply fried crumbled bacon bits adds to the flavor or perhaps sunflower seeds. If your tates run on the spicy side you might add a bit of hot sauce. In any case it is a quick and easy salad. If you're pressed for time buy packaged lettuce shreds & preshredded cheddar cheese. Boil the eggs the night before, You may even buy prechopped green onion.
