I'm on a low-carb diet, so I omitted the sugar from the dressing. The salad was still sweet enough from the peas and avocado.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover Easter eggs. I chopped up some hard-boiled eggs and added them to the salad. It was a delicious and festive addition.

I'm allergic to avocado, so I substituted mashed chickpeas in this recipe. It was a great alternative and the salad was still delicious.

This salad is a great base for customization. I added some chopped bacon and crumbled blue cheese to mine. It was amazing!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The dressing was too oily and the peas were a bit tough.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I would add some more herbs or spices to give it more flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of peas, but I really enjoyed this salad. The avocado and dressing helped to balance out the flavor of the peas.
