Creamy Peas with Bacon and Pecans

Step 1

Cook frozen peas according to cooking instructions (usually, by bringing water to boil, adding peas, reducing heat to medium in cooking in this water for 5 minutes). Drain.

Step 2

Combine cooked peas, cooked and chopped bacon, and chopped pecans in a bowl.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine mayo and sour cream (or unflavored Green Yogurt or unflavored Kefir), mustard, honey, lemon or lime juice. Make sure the honey is softened, warm it up if needed, so it mixes in easily. Whisk the salad ingredients together and taste. Add about 1/8 teaspoon of salt, to taste.

Step 4

Add salad dressing to the salad gradually (start with half and then add more, to your taste). You don't have to use the whole amount of dressing. Add more mustard or more lemon juice or more salt, if needed.
