Really nice salad. I did play with the dressing a little by adding a little extra yogurt to offset the mustard. The cruncy texture of the red bell peppers and water chestnuts was a nice addition to the peas. Easy to make and the colors really pop.

Great recipe. I am a huge fan of peas and always looking for new recipes. I was a little apprehensive of the mustard in the dressing and even more concerned when I tasted the dressing right after I mixed it - the mustard was very dominate!! However, after refrigerating it overnight, that dressing was incredible and I have a new favorite pea salad recipe!!

I really liked this salad. The water chestnuts offer a delightful crunch in a tart dressing. Very different from the standard pea salads I've tried in the past. I only used a quarter of a red bell & elected to julienne the water chestnuts. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

We enjoyed this salad and especially liked the tangy zing the dill and mustard gave to the dressing, thanks for sharing! Made this for ZWT8 Bistro Babes.
