Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups lettuce chopped

  • 1 cup bacon bits

  • Chop the lettuce and tomatoes.
  • Add the eggs to a boiling pot of water, and boil for 10 minutes, then cover, remove from heat, and allow to set for 10 minutes.
  • Rinse eggs in cold water, until slightly cooled, and then peel. Cut eggs into slices or eighths.
  • Add the lettuce in the first layer, then the tomatoes on top of the lettuce.

  • Sprinkle the peas for the fourth layer.
