Colorful and dressed up enough for Christmas, here's an easy-to-make salad that is wonderful all year-round. The green peas and red onion make it especially festive looking.
Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) frozen petite peas, thawed
1-1/2 cups fresh snow peas, trimmed and halved
1 cup halved thinly sliced red onion
1 jar (2 ounces) diced pimientos, drained
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon minced fresh mint
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
dash to 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the peas, onions and pimientos. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, mint, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
2. Pour over pea mixture; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, stir in the bacon. Yield: 8 servings.
