This Pea Salad with Bacon and Red Peppers is a very pretty side dish. My addition was adding the red peppers for the holidays so I could call it Christmas Pea Salad, I just didn't get it posted earlier for some reason. And of course, this is a nice side dish any time of year, with or without the peppers. It also calls for some basic pantry ingredients or things we generally have on-hand, ya gotta love that! So if you're looking for a new recipe to try, it's kind of hard to go wrong with this one folks:@)
