I LOVE pea salad...what a Good idea!! Thanks for the nudge!! Also, gorgeous photos ...I can taste it already!
Mmmmmm. I was hungry. Now, I'm hungrier. Thanks for the recipe.
I too love Sweetpea Salad. It has been awhile since I had some and will do that this week. I once added a couple slices of beets that I had diced up and it was yummy and the color was beautiful.
I never had Sweet pea salad, but it sure looks yummy. I might just try your receipe, but first how big is a scoop? lol
Yummy yum! Everything I like in there!
yuck...i hate peas (except for goats by that name of course =o) that might be good with some broccoli florets though, and a big ole' glass of iced sweet tea...yum yum! oh, love fried rice...after i have picked out all of the peas ;o)
Looks Yummy
Yeah, change it up and make your own version - chopped tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, bits of this or that. Be sure to blog about it.
Goody, another recipe to try. :) Looks scrumptious. :)
OMG - I am ready for a cool lunch and this looks fabulous!! I love sweet peas, use them in regular salads, but I've never tried to make a salad out of them!!! I have all the ingredients but the vinegar - have thickly shredded cheese, not a block. Hmmmm. I think I'll start with your recipe and see what I can come up with! I don't like to cook, so don't keep a lot of necessaries on hand - will add the vinegar to my list now!!!

BTW, Joanna, I haven't made fried rice in quite a while - don't know why because it's easy and I like it. I've used eggs, peas, and onions, but how do you make yours? Looks better than mine did!!!
