I got this idea once when we were going to a picnic and my time was really short. I never liked traditional pea salad as it tasted like peas and mayo. I looked in the fridge and added what I had and in about 5 minutes I had a dish that everyone complimented me on. :)

Ingredients

  • 2 packages frozen peas
  • 1 bottle hidden valley ranch dressing
  • 1/2 pound cooked bacon....crisp

How To Make quick and tasty pea salad

  • Step 1
    Cook bacon till crisp (I use my microwave bacon plate to make prep time quicker)
  • Step 2
    Add partly thawed peas, ranch dressing, crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, and chopped onion....then mix
  • Step 3
    Peas must be only partly thawed as they mix better. If they are to soft they get mushy when mixing.
  • Step 4
    Let set for about 15 minutes (to thaw peas a little more)...then enjoy.
