Made this as instructions except for cutting it in half. I have never added hard-boiled eggs to my pea salad and it was delicious! Definately a keeper. Thank you for submitting the recipe. Made for Zaar Cookbook tag game. -
OMG, we loved this salad! We were lucky enough to have V prepare this for us at a 4th of July get together, and it was a hit with the whole crowd. Very fresh and creamy, we totally loved it. In fact, it's my new favourite. I couldn't stop eating it LOL! Thanks V, for a yummy salad and a new recipe :) -
This is the first time I had pea salad and it was very good. My guests enjoyed this salad very much as well. But the main point is that this salad is magical it really is a crowd recipe!!! I decided to double it because I just couldn't understand how the quantities could feed that many people and now I'll be eating pea salad for the next 4 days!! I just put 4 onions total instead of 2 because we like our salads oniony. -
Delcious pea salad recipe - quick and easy peasy! I love pea salad anytime and this did not disappoint. Nice flavors and it really DOES feed an army! LOL. Thank you for posting! I can't wait to make it very soon. I think I may try adding a little bacon and diced waterchestnuts - just something I like in pea salad. This is delicious JUST AS IT IS! Into the KEEPER file this goes! :)

I don't think there's anything better than spending time with family and friends and enjoying delicious food together. I just love food. I love reading about food, writing about food, cooking food and.. not surprisingly, eating food. My latest passion is food-photography! I'm still learning a lot, but I'm trying to post photos with all my recipes and reviews. I read recipe books, magazines and food blogs like novels. I get such satisfaction when someone enjoys a meal or dessert that I have prepared. It is the biggest compliment to me when my family and friends rave about my cooking. There are so many terrific recipes on this site. If I'm looking for something, I'm sure to find it here. I do have stacks of my own favorite recipes which I am slowly but surely getting in my cookbooks here . I have had so many awesome reviews and fabulous photos taken of my recipes... I try to thank everyone personally .. I sincerely appreciate each and every review and or comment left. I know it takes time to photograph and upload photos - So I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for finding and trying my recipes and taking the extra effort...
