CRUNCHY PEA SALAD (HIDDEN VALLEY RANCH)

I got to taste this at a DAV (disabled American veterans) sponsored luncheon. It was really fantastic, so I asked for the recipe, never expecting to get it. I personally don't add the bacon because I don't need it...the salad is crunchy and nummy on it's own. I add the cashews before I serve so that they stay crunchy too.

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 oz frozen baby peas, thawed
1 c diced celery
1 c chopped cauliflower
1/4 c diced green onions
1 c chopped cashews
1/2 c sour cream
1 c prepared hidden valley ranch salad dressing

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all ingredients. Chill. Garnish with crumbled bacon before serving if desired. I never did, the salad is incredible as it is!

Tips:

  • Fresh and crisp vegetables are key to a delicious pea salad. Choose peas that are bright green and firm, and avoid any that are wilted or yellowed. Fresh herbs, such as dill, chives, and parsley, also add a lot of flavor to the salad.
  • For a crunchy texture, use a combination of fresh and crispy vegetables, such as celery, carrots, and radishes. You can also add some chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch.
  • To make a creamy dressing, use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk. You can also add some Dijon mustard or horseradish for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve the pea salad immediately after making it, or chill it for a few hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Pea salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and healthy salad that everyone will enjoy.
