Bouquet Salad

Ingredients

• 4 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped
• 1 head of lettuce, or 1 pint of water cresses
• 1 large bunch of nasturtium blossoms or buttercups
• French dressing, with the addition of 1 teaspoonful of sugar

Instructions

Wash the lettuce or cresses, and throw into ice water.

When crisp, take out, and shake out all the water. Cut or tear in pieces. Put a layer in the bowl, with here and there a flower, and sprinkle in half of the egg and half the dressing. Repeat this.

Arrange the flowers in a wreath, and put a few in the centre. Serve immediately.
