This is a recipe that is done mainly by taste so trust your own tongue!!.... I was raised on this salad but for most people when you say PEA SALAD, they have never had it but it is really good and the kids LOVE it..it's a good way to get kids to eat peas!..It is ALWAYS great for a picnic or BBQ..it is also a conversation starter as it is unique!..VERY important to keep this VERY cold and eat it cold!
