Pea Salad
We harvested our peas yesterday. Peas are one of those crops that take up a lot of room and really don’t produce that much. I planted a whole pack of peas and didn’t end up harvesting enough for one dish. They really are super good though, and really sweet. We ate a bunch raw as we were picking, pods and all. I ended up making a pea salad. Nothing fancy or gourmet, but we like it just the same.
4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled (I make at least 2 extra slices because I can’t resist eating some)
4 C. cooked peas (I steam them)
1 C. shredded cheddar
1/2 C. diced red onion
3/4 C. ranch dressing
Run cold water over the cooked peas to cool them off. Drain in a colander. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and serve. Super easy, surprisingly good..
