This recipe is from recipezaar. It is a great dish to make for family occasions or for a potluck. So easy, and so yummy.

Salad:
1 bag lettuce
6-8 hard-boiled eggs
shredded carrot
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1/2 c. chopped celery
1/2 c. chopped green pepper
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen peas, thawed
3/4 lb. bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 (1 oz.) pkg. shredded cheese, cheddar or monterey jack

Dressing:
2 c. mayonnaise
2 c. sour cream
2 pkg. ranch dressing mix (like Hidden Valley)

Make dressing the night before and refrigerate so the flavors can meld. Layer salad ingredients in a 13x9 dish or salad bowl except the last two. Spread the dressing over the top of the salad making sure to cover the dish completely all the way to the edges. Sprinkle the bacon and shredded cheese over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving. Serve chilled.
