Pea Cheese Salad


This image is very similar to this recipe. 

Hello Friends, I goofed and left out the hard cooked eggs! You need the eggs! Sorry!

Pea  Cheese Salad

10 oz frozen peas
1 cup diced cheddar cheese   
1/2 cup diced onion
1/4 cup diced celery
1/4 pimento
2 hard cooked eggs
salt
pepper
tabasco sauce to taste

Blanch peas and cool. Mix peas, cheese, onion, celery, and pimento in medium bowl. In a separate small bowl mix mayonnaise, salt, pepper and tabasco sauce.  Add this mixture to  vegetables and cheese. Check seasonings and strength of tabasco. You may want to add another drop or two of tabasco depending on the strength of the sauce you are using and the strength of the kick you want when you bite into the salad. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tip: Use only frozen or fresh peas. Canned peas do not look or taste as well.  You may use roasted red pepper diced in place of the pimento.

  1. You also forgot to include mayonnaise in the ingredients. How much do I use?
