Cold Vegetable Ranch Salad - "Summer Salad"





This makes a really large salad so I usually half it and it's still enough to feed a family of 5.  Leave out what you don't have or don't like, substitute if you wish but it works best if you at least have the cauliflower, broccoli, peas, peppers and bacon and even better if you can add at least 3-5 more veggies.

Summer Salad

1 head cauliflower, chopped
1 10 oz. pkg frozen peas
1 c celery, chopped
2-3 green onions, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped (or yellow or orange)
1 head broccoli, chopped
1 cucumber, sliced
1 pk. dry Hidden Valley Ranch mix
1 c mayonnaise
4 hard boiled eggs, sliced or chopped
cheddar cheese cubes
bacon bits or crumbled cooked bacon

Combine the dressing mix with the mayonnaise.  Add this to a large bowl of your mixed vegetables and mix well.  Add the eggs, cheese and bacon.  Cover and chill 4 hours before serving.  Even better the longer it chills and sets.




Peas are so pretty!  And taste so good with the ranch dressing mix!
