NOTES: I ran into this recipe while catering one day. I had never had it before and was reading it, thinking pea salad, not so good. But I made it tasted it and asked for the recipe. Your welcome.
Defrost peas or boil for a few seconds and rinse with cold water. Drain. Mix all the ingredients and let sit for ½ hour before service. Yum yum!
