Seven layer salad...
Overnight salad....
24 hour salad...
This salad goes by many different names but
whatever the name it goes by..
It's delicious~






24 hour salad looks great served in a large glass bowl.
An old, inexpensive punch bowl found at any thrift store or
goodwill is ideal for this salad.
I bought my punch bowl at goodwill a few years ago
(without the cups) for $1.99.
I use it for trifle, dirt cake,
even potato salad.

24 hour salad is the perfect salad
to bring along to your upcoming
4th of July gathering~
