Pea Salad

This recipe came about because Jennifer did not like anything in the 7-layer salad except the top layers... so I was a nice mom and made her a special salad that just had the parts she liked: peas, cheese, bacon and the dressing (mayonnaise & sour cream).

Voila! Pea Salad.

Salad:

1 large bag frozen peas (THAWED) - enough to feed your crowd

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (add more to taste)

2 - 4 Tbsp Parmesan cheese

1 pouch (pre-cooked) bacon bits

OPTIONAL - chopped water chestnuts

Stir together in large bowl

Dressing:

Sour cream and mayonnaise (no, do NOT use Miracle Whip)

equal proportions of each... start with 1/3 cup of each mixed together.

Use more as needed for th

e amount of peas you have.

Stir well, pour over peas, cheese and bacon and stir to mix.
