Ingredients
Pea Salad:
- 4 Bacon cooked and chopped, thick cut, strips
- 20 ounces peas frozen
- ½ cup red onion finely chopped
- ⅔ cup dried cranberries or raisins
- ½ cup pecans chopped, raw
Dressing:
- ⅔ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 ½ Tbsp avocado oil
- 2 Tbsp rice vinegar or lemon juice
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup
- ½ tsp salt to taste, sea salt
- 1 garlic minced, large clove
Instructions
- If you're using frozen peas, bring them out of the freezer and thaw them completely. To speed up the process, transfer the peas to a colander and run hot water over them.
- Cook the bacon until crispy, then transfer to a cutting board and allow it to cool. Once cool, chop it up into small bits.
- Stir together the ingredients for the dressing in a mixing bowl until completely combined.
- Add in the remaining ingredients for the salad, and stir until everything is well coated.
- Taste the pea salad for flavor and add more sea salt to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Note: The pea salad becomes more flavorful as it sits over time! If you can, make it 6 to 24 hours in advance. If you are making it in advance, add the chopped bacon and pecans just before serving so that the texture stays nice and crunchy.
