Mother's Sweet Pea Salad image

MOTHER made this tasty salad for our Thanksgiving or Christmas diners. But it's so good I make it often during the year. It's an ideal accompaniment for whatever main dish we have for dinner. When served as an individual salad on a lettuce leaf, it's very attractive. -Nellie Dulin Concord, North Carolina

This salad is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the sweet peas and the crunchy almonds. I always make a double batch because it disappears so quickly.

This salad is so refreshing and perfect for summer. I love the combination of sweet peas, crunchy celery, and creamy dressing. I've also made it with grilled chicken and it's just as delicious.

This salad is a delightful symphony of flavors and textures. The sweetness of the peas, the crunch of the celery and almonds, and the tangy dressing come together perfectly. I especially love the addition of fresh mint, which adds a refreshing pop of
