Pea Salad Recipe

PEA SALAD RECIPE

This is a old one, but recently has been rediscovered in our family.  My husband use to think that it was a chick dish, but now says he likes this recipe better.  I can’t remember the old recipe I used, but this is the one I use now.  

Ingredients:

2 to 4 cups of frozen green peas  (I use whatever is left over in the bag from another meal)

½ cup chopped onion

5 pieces of bacon (I use turkey bacon)

2 to 4 Tblsp of Ranch dressing – to taste

½ cup of cheddar cheese, cubed or shredded - Optional

Directions:

Thaw green peas in a bowl.  

Cut bacon strips into slivers and cook them in a skillet or microwave until crispy.  Allow bacon to cool.  

Chop onions.  Add onions, cheese, and cool bacon to green peas.  

Add in the amount of Ranch to your liking.  Stir until coated.
