Ingredients

  • 1 head large iceberg lettuce
  • 1 head small cauliflower
  • 12 slices cooked bacon
  • 10 slice onion rings
  • 1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sweetener
  • 1 cup low fat mayonnaise

Directions

  • Put bacon in a skillet and brown until crisp while preparing the rest of the ingredients. When crisp, let drain and cool on paper towels and crumble.
  • In a small bowl combine the mayo and sweetener (like Splenda). Let sit while continuing with the other ingredients.
  • Tear lettuce leaves into small pieces and add to a very large bowl for 1st layer. Don't use the very center of the head as that part is very bitter.
  • Add chopped cauliflower flowerettes for 2nd layer. Add rings of onions for 3rd layer.
  • Using a rubber spatula, spread the mayo and Splenda mixture on top of the layers, as if you were icing a cake. This is layer 4.
  • Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese and crumbled bacon over the top of the 'icing' for layer 5.
  • Cover and chill for at least 4 hours. Letting it set overnight is even better.
  • Toss the salad immediately before serving. Yields 8 healthy portions.
