Loved this. Simple to make and so very good. Thanks for sharing.

I loved this because peas are a favorite of mine. I subbed Mayo for sour cream and added some raisins to sweeten it up.

Excellent Pea Salad--i did downsize it a bit and instead of sour cream I used ricotta cheese....was well-received by family...thanks for the great Pea Salad recipe

I love this salad! I didn't have cashews, so I added toasted chopped pecans and extra bacon. Very tasty! Thank you for sharing.

This is exactly like the salad my best friend makes. The only change I would make is that I would say the bacon is NOT optional. The more the better.
