Black-Eyed Pea Salad

Black-Eyed Pea Salad

This is a perennial favorite at our house. Light, refreshing, yet subtantial enough to make a summer entree - or a side dish with any number of meals. It's great for the lunchbox or taking to a summer picnic or covered-dish diner. It has a comforting combination of flavours that can be enjoyed over and over without getting tiresome.

It's ultra-simple to make, taking only a matter of minutes.
