Remember these?


7 layer salads?
I made one for Lulu's party..It's been years..but made 2 little additional ones ..

They work well in small cups or glasses~



Same as 20 yrs ago..Lettuce.. celery..radish.. spring green onions....some peppers.. frozen peas a bit of sugar some mayo..hard bloiled eggs,bacon and cheese..Pea shoots.
Done~and another use for the large trifle bowl..:)

    I remember very well. we call that just layer salad (Schicht salat), and my mother used to make that for family potlucks. The idea with the verrine is so cute and a wonderful idea.

    One of my favorites! I have never put in radishes but I will be! Love the idea of individual servings!

    We used to put tiny cauliflower florets in ours instead of the radishes. The small cup salads are a great idea.

    What a great idea--7 layer verrines! (This would be a good way to ensure portion control...) I love your photos and your ideas.

    Well, of course I remember them. But not displayed in tiny little cups. Precious!

    I love them in the petite size, M! That is a brilliant presentation (and MUCH neater way of serving.) Excellent idea! :)

    Comme je prépare le mariage de mon fils, je viens de trouver une belle verrine...et hop, j'emporte avec moi la recette...tu sais Monique, je craque aussi sur tes photos, c'est un enchantement pour moi, même si je ne le dis pas toujours...je visionne les billets que je n'ai pas vu et j'admire....la recette et la contenu...zou, je file...je reviendrai pour ton joli tajine et passe un doux week-end avec ta famille. J'ai recommencé l'opération de l'inscription...Comme cela passe par google, il y a beaucoup de trafic et cela ne marche pas quelques fois au premier coup....On reste en contact et je te dirai si c'est validé....kikouuuuuu
