DON'T EAT TOO MUCH!!!THIS IS DELICIOUS

Blue Ribbon Recipe

I have fond memories of a salad very much like this from my childhood. My mom and aunts would make it for potlucks and family functions... easy to transport, universally loved and pretty as a picture! The maple flavored bacon gives an added zip and turns this salad into a real stunner.
