    This is THE BEST recipe. I know the bananas sound weird but it works. I saw Paula make this on her show, I wrote it down, made it and lost the recipe. I got absolute raves on it. I couldnt find the recipe on the website so thank you for printing it again!

    I bought all the ingredients to make this salad, then when I got home and started putting it together, I kept double-checking everything I put into it (Bananas? Are you SURE about this, Paula Deen?. Well, the moral of the story is: Don't doubt Paula Deen, y'all. :

    This salad is a really nice mix of sweet and savory. I omitted the water chestnuts (because my boyfriend hates them for some reason and I used almonds instead of any of the nuts listed above. I made mine a little too sweet for my taste, so I might cut out some of the sugar next time.

    I'm going to give this one three stars because all the bacon, sugar and those TWO CUPS of mayo really ruin the healthiness factor of this salad. I'm also giving it three stars because it went bad VERY quickly. After leaving it in the fridge, the next day the salad way so wilted and just didn't hold up well.

    But I do give it credit for tasting yummy when I first made it. It was very heavy, and very sweet, but the banana slices, the pecans, salty bacon and cheesy cheddar along with the crunch from the lettuce went together real nice!

    I made this recipe exactly as Paula did and my friends and family loved it! I made it for the 4th of July and I am making it again for a party tomorrow. I don't even like some of the ingredients, like peas, but in this salad and with the sweet salad dressing it tastes soooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Loved this - made it last night just like the recipe except left out the "dreaded raisins" as they are known in my house. I was also wary of the bananas, but I trusted in Paula and just cut them a little thin in the event we didn't like them - but I will say this is the very best layered salad I have ever eaten or made. It is an instant hit for us.

    I went against my better judgement and put the bananas in! Bad idea, did not like at all, the bananas were too overpowering, I will make this again without the bananas, I have a feeling it will be great!! Sorry Paula

    Making this today for the 4th of July!! This is always eaten up, wherever I take it. I do leave the bananas out, but everything else goes in. Delicious :

    Made this for Father's day. I'm famous for my layered salad's in my family and this my company said was good, but I think next time if I make it I would leave out the bananas. I loved the flavor it gave the salad, but the texture I could do with out. All the other ingredients had a lot of flavor and made for a very crunchy salad. The dressing wasn't half bad either, but make sure you do let it sit like she says. The sugar needs time to dissolve, and stir it again before putting it on.
