A delicious and attractive layered salad. The celery and water chestnuts add a nice crunch, and the fresh Parmesan dressing with bacon/egg topping adds a wonderful flavor to the vegetables. It's important that each serving includes a portion of all the layers. Please note: the overnight chilling time is essential for flavor, and make this a great do-ahead dish. This recipe would be perfect for a ladies luncheon in the Southern U.S. region.
Ingredients:
1 head iceberg lettuce, torn in bite-size pieces
1/2 cup green onion, sliced
1 cup celery, sliced
1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas
1 (4 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained

1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (like seasonall)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 hard-boiled eggs, sliced

1. In a deep serving bowl, preferably a clear glass bowl, layer ingredients one at a time in the order given from lettuce through water chestnuts.
2. Mix mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, sugar, seasoning salt and garlic powder.
3. Add this mixture as the top layer in the bowl.
4. Cover and chill the salad overnight.
