Green Pea Salad

This is another great recipe from Nancy S. Hughes and The 1,200-Calorie-a-Day Menu Cookbook.

I love this. I've eaten this countless times. Today I added chopped up baby carrots (raw) for an extra boost of veggies. I also don't worry about slicing and making everything pretty. I just throw it in my mini chopper. I usually like to eat this as a main course, though the book designed it as a side dish. Sometimes I add bits of cheese to give it more volume if its a meal. It's super easy and fast to make, but needs an hour to chill. Trust me, you NEED that hour. It does well the next day also, but gets a little liquid in the bottom.

Green Pea Salad

1/2 cup FF Mircale Whip (I prefer Lite)

1/3 cup Finely chopped Yellow Onion

1 tsp Sugar

1/2 tsp Pepper

24 small Green Olives stuffed with Pimentos, sliced

2 10oz packages Frozen Green Peas, steam cooked (I use 1 16oz pk and its fine)

Combine everything except peas and blend thouroughly. Add steamed peas. Toss gently, but coat. Chill for 1 hour.
