Need recipe for Pea Salad (Read 342 times)

BF & I both like pea salad, but don't have a recipe. Think I can wing it, but would rather have some feedback on it. Like the ones with cheese in em & maybe a little ham.
Frozen or canned?? Wanna fix it for tomorrow night. TIA

I would use frozen! Then, add cheese chunks, peanuts, a white sauce, sour cream or yogurt & mayo, diced sweet onions ham if you like. Try 1 of these. click on the pic to get to the site.

Thanks Blue. I figured you'd know. Looks like I found one there on pinterest. I'll ley ya know how it turns out. You rock!!

YW bb! I specified SWEET onions, because I think reg. ones can make a salad taste bad! BTW, except for the ham, what I posted is near to what Hank's used/does serve. I don't know if they still do, but the did when they were in Naplate!

We haven't eaten supper yet, but BF tried the pea salad & it's a hit! Looks like I picked the right recipe.
Thanks again!! Just a little too much salt, but other than that, delic!!

Which one did you use? Did you add peanuts?

I made the one that is on the first row all the way to the right. Very simple recipe. Just what I was looking for. It has the Tobasco sauce in it. I put in the green Tobasco. Couldn't really tell it was there. No, did not add any nuts. The daughter's fiancé & my BF loved it as well. I did add a bit more mayo tho & yeah, I always try to use a good sweet onion, like the Vadalia as well. This recipe does not need that much salt. Other than that, it's great!!
