This salad would make a terrific addition to summer BBQs and picnics, it travels and holds well. The slightly sweet and spicy dressing gives the vegetables a welcome zing.

This salad is a bit too pricey for my taste. I think I could find a similar recipe for less money.

I found the black-eyed peas to be a bit too firm. I think I would have preferred them to be cooked a little longer.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning.

I used canned black-eyed peas for this salad and they worked great. I also added a little bit of chopped red onion for extra flavor.
