Seven Layer Salad

This makes a large salad and is often used for Holidays or summer gatherings!  I found a recipe that had a different dressing from the usual mayo dressing.  But this recipe makes a lot of dressing, so cut back if your salad is not real large. Oh I list 9 ingredients, add or subtract to your liking.

Seven Layer Salad
