• 1 lb Bacon, cooked and chopped
• 1 med onion, sliced to slivers

• 1 cup Hellmans Mayo
• 1/4 cup Sugar
• Fresh ground pepper

1. Layer ingredients in order: Lettuce, cauliflower, onion, bacon.
2. Fold mayo and sugar together. Spread on top.
3. Grate Parmesan cheese on top. Pepper to taste.

Sweet Creamy Cole Slaw

Ingredients

• 1/4 head (2-3 cups) cabbage, shredded
• 1 carrot, grated
• 2 Tbsp. chopped onion
• 1 rib celery, sliced
• 1/4 c. sweet pickle relish
• 1/3-1/2 c. mayonnaise
• 1 tsp. sugar
• salt and pepper to taste 

Directions

1. Toss vegetables together in large bowl.
2. Add pickle, mayo and sugar.
3. Mix, taste, and add salt and pepper, if needed.

Shortcut: Use bagged cole slaw mix for the cabbage and carrot.

My Mom's Note: I like my coleslaw creamy and sweet, so you may need to add more mayo or pickle relish . Be careful about the salt. The pickle relish and mayo are both salty. Taste before you salt.

Pea Salad

A light, cool, refreshing side for any savory main course. This recipe has been on all my family holiday menus for generations and the quantity can support a moderate group of people (5-8, depending). Great for anyone who enjoys dishes with mayonnaise.
