This salad has been a family-favorite for years. Even people who don’t typically like salad are surprised by how much they enjoy this dish. This is a real winner at potlucks and other large gatherings, as it makes quite a lot of salad.
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon
- 2 cups mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 4 cups cauliflower florets
- 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large head lettuce, cut into bite-size pieces
- 2 cups seasoned croutons
- 1 cup sliced water chestnuts
Directions
Step 1
Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels.
Step 2
Whisk mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, sugar, and basil together in a large bowl until smooth. Add broccoli, cauliflower, and red onion to mayonnaise mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate salad until chilled and flavors have blended, 3 hours to overnight.
Step 3
Crumble bacon. Mix bacon, lettuce, croutons, and water chestnuts into salad.

Loved how simple this recipe is to put together. The dried basil in the dressing was new to me. I had a small portion of cauliflower and broccoli left, so I adjusted the other ingredients. Because I knew we would have leftovers, I added the croutons to the individual salads before serving. By doing so, the salad was still fresh the next day and additional croutons were added. I love how much this taste like 24-hr layered lettuce salad, but made and eaten the same day. I will definitely be using this recipe again. We had this salad with ‘Buffalo Chicken Calzone’ another AR recipe. Thanks for sharing, SFORD1024

Really good! I added a little extra black pepper and seasonings. Didn’t have time to let it sit but good none the less.

I was looking for a recipe to use up some broccoli and cauliflower when I came across this recipe. I subbed Miracle Whip for mayo cause I didn’t have mayo on hand. Loved this salad, will definitely make it again. It paired nicely with a vegetable quiche I made.
