Sweet Pea Salad

Submitted by MrsJack

"My family loves this pea salad-even those that normally wouldn't eat peas. I prefer to use mayo but Miracle Whip is great, too-just sweeter. Easily expanded to feed a crowd. Enjoy!"

Hi Mrs Jack, you pea salad is simply fantastic, I love the addition of eggs, I used a red onion and also added in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and fresh ground pepper, I made this a day in advance to blend the flavors, I love this and plan on making it many more times, thank you for sharing!
