salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 pound bacon, cooked and chopped

Directions

Step 1 -In a clear glass bowl or trifle dish, add enough of the lettuce to cover the bottom.

Step 2 -Season the spinach, the eggs, and the tomatoes with the salt and the black pepper.

Step 3 -Around the perimeter of the bowl, layer the spinach, the eggs, the bacon, the tomatoes, the green onions, the cheddar cheese, and the peas in that order.

Step 4 -Fill the center of the salad with the remaining lettuce.

Step 5 -In a separate bowl, add the mayonnaise, the sour cream, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar and whisk well to combine.

Step 6 -Taste the dressing and add the extra sugar, as needed.

Step 7 -Pour the dressing over the top of the lettuce in the center of the salad, spreading it out so the lettuce is completely covered.

Step 8 -Sprinkle the dressing with the dill.

Step 9 -Cover the glass bowl and refrigerate it for 8 hours.
