My original recipe had parmesan, though I usually used lots of shredded cheddar ... plus some fresly grated parmesan!
Also put a layer carrots and/or mushrooms.
And REAL chopped bacon ... not the artificial Bacon Bits.
I like to make mine in a nice glass bowl, so everyone could see the layers.
Another note is that my recipe you mixed the sugar with the mayo, then spread on top.
So delicious ... and such a nice make ahead recipe!
And now, you have me wanting to make it.
