#1 Pea Salad Most Requested!
"This is the pea salad everyone begs for at any event or anytime we make it. Easy and so addictive. Most folks are sure there is bacon in the recipe, but there is none needed for the fabulous flavor."Tasty and easy! I added more mayo, however.OMG this was so good. I will make again and again.I think the chopped smoked almonds is a fantastic idea that I will be adding to other salads as well! I also added some grated cheddar and a little red wine vinegar and sugar to the mayo.I made a half recipe today and wish I had made the whole recipe. Took it to a friend's house as an extra side dish for lunch ad everyone, including me, really loved it! The smoked almonds really do give it a bacon-y taste. I will definitely be making this again! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
