Very good for parties! I also add boiled egg and have substituted the bacon with bacon bits. I like to use red onion. Great recipe!

I did not actually make this but I have tasted it and it is magnificent. I plan on making it, especially around the holidays because it seems so easy to prepare.

I love this recipe in the summer. It is simple to make and everyone seems to love it. I have also added tomatos for an '8-layer' salad.
