How To Make two pea salad

Step 1

Dump green peas & chick-peas in a collander. Pick out pieces of chick pea shell and rinse under cold water until peas are almost thawed. Drain well.

Step 2

Mix dressing ingredients in a large bowl. Add vegetables & stir gently to coat with dressing.
Step 3

Cover & chill for at least 3 hours prior to serving. Best if made a day in advance.
Step 4

This is the basic recipe. Other things I've added: chopped raw zucchini, chopped raw broccoli stems, diced celery, diced cooked meat. Things not to add: kidney beans (too sweet) raw mushrooms or olives (turn dressing gray)
