Pea Salad
This is one of my
favorite side dishes, especially with Barbecue Tender-bits and almost any other
vegetarian main dish. Lots of good stuff in this and it is a nice flexible
recipe to boot. You can add all sorts
of fun stuff to it. Double it for
Ingredients
- 1 can of LeSeur Peas or a package of frozen peas, partially thawed
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1 or 2 hard-boiled eggs chopped
- ¼ cup chopped onion (you can also use chopped green onions)
- 1 ½ cup cheddar cheese cubed (you can also use Velveeta)
- ½ cup Kraft mayonnaise
- ½ cup Miracle Whip salad dressing
- 3 tablespoons sweet pickle relish or 3 sweet gherkins choped
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon celery seed
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1 avocado cubed (optional)
- ¼ cup sweet bell pepper – chopped (optional)
- 2 firm Roma Tomatoes diced (optional)
Directions:
- Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
- That’s pretty much it. Transfer it to a pretty serving bowl and you’re done. I like to sprinkle a little Paprika on top to give it color.
- Chill until served.
Note: Works even
better if you make it on Friday for Sabbath potluck. Just keep it in the fridge
till you leave for church, then put it in the fridge there. It’s really good
cold.
One of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your recipes. I have a favor: I am unable to copy your recipes on the dark brown background -- they are unreadable. I have to retype them. Is there a work-around to avoid retyping? Thank you for your contributions!

DeleteIt should work. Just make sure when you paste it on the page, Highlight the text (drag the cursor over where it should be) and then change the color of the text from white to black.
DeleteJust do control A (all) then control C (copy) and open a word document and paste. Then on paste options, select keep text only and you will have a white background with the recipe.
