Bacon & Swiss Salad

I mentioned on 4 little Ferguson’s facebook page, that I had 30 cups of lettuce ready, because I was making THE Salad.  As in the only one I ever take to Holiday functions or Dale’s family would eat me alive.

For real.

It’s that good, and a nice change from your typical dinner salad.

  • 10 cups Mixed Greens, We Prefer Spring Greens And Spinach Leaves
