What is Pea Salad?

Pea salad is a classic side dish made from sweet peas tossed with ham, cheddar cheese, and red onion, and coated in a creamy and tangy dressing. This salad has a beautiful balance of flavors and is so versatile!

Here’s what you’ll need to make pea salad:

Greek Yogurt: Makes the dressing creamy and tangy with fewer calories and fat than sour cream. We highly recommend Greek yogurt over plain yogurt or sour cream for its thicker texture.
Mayonnaise: Adds richness and creaminess to the dressing.
White Vinegar: Adds a refreshing tanginess to the dressing to balance the creaminess.
Parsley: Adds a pop of freshness.
Frozen Peas: Just as bright and flavorful as fresh, these are a great budget option for this salad.
Ham Steak: You’ll need a 12 oz. ham steak, or you can use leftover ham or cooked bacon. Vegetarian? No problem! If you leave out the ham, this pea salad is still flavorful and fresh.
Red Onion: Adds a bit of bite to the recipe and a wonderful crunchy texture, creating a great contrast to the sweet peas.
Cheddar Cheese: Adds a creamy and salty component to this delicious salad.
Salt and Pepper: Enhance the overall flavor of the salad.

What Else Can I Add to Pea Salad?

This creamy salad is a great recipe to add leftovers to. We like to add:

Leftover short noodles, like macaroni or bowties
Finely diced carrots
Chopped broccoli florets
Raisins or other dried fruits
Vegetarian meat substitutes also work well.

If you want to make your money stretch a little bit further, then this is a great recipe to use up any leftover ham that you might have from the holidays. It will help reduce waste and make the recipe cheaper. That’s a win-win!
