Amish Funeral Salad Instructions: 1. Cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble and set aside. 2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth. 3. In a large glass serving dish, layer the chopped romaine lettuce evenly across the bottom. 4. Add peas, chopped eggs, celery, green onions, cheddar cheese, and bacon in even layers. 5. Spread the dressing gently over the top to seal the salad. 6. Cover and refrigerate overnight for the best flavor and texture. 7. Toss lightly before serving or scoop straight from the dish Amish-style. Pro Tip: For the most authentic church-supper flavor, make this salad a full day ahead — the overnight chill is what gives it that creamy, sweet-savory magic everyone remembers.

You’d never expect a chilled salad to comfort an entire community… but one bite of this creamy Amish favorite explains everything. Passed around Lancaster County tables after long days of gathering and grieving, this sweet, savory classic always disappears first.
