Sweet Pea and Dill Salad

I substituted broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots for the sweet peas, because the people I was serving it to didn't care for the sweet peas. They loved it, great recipe.

Giving this 5 stars because I did follow the dressing directions, completely, and it's GREAT! However, I did add some chopped sweet pickle, red pepper and minced onion along with the peas. Served it over fresh spinach leaves and sliced tomatoes.

This was just so-so. I was not very impressed.

We enjoyed this salad. I cut the mayo to 1/4 cup and used fat free yogurt in place of the sour cream and it was still very good.

I awesome. I added romaine lettuce.

Excellent recipe! Made this for Mother's Day and my mother wants the recipe. I added more peas than called for because I love peas!

I liked the sauce fine, but in general, I do not care for frozen peas. I think that I might try it with my favorite can peas.

This was a very Southern recipe! Everyone in Texas eats pea salad!

I liked this, but my husband thought it had too much dill.

I liked it OK, but it was a little much on the dill. I added some small chunks of sharp cheddar cheese and liked it better that way.

I used Fat Free sour cream and may (which was great!) and I added 1 lb cooked shrimp (not mini, but smaller in size) to make it more substantial. It was realllllly good!

I liked the spicyness that the horseradish added. I added salt, chopped onion and chedder-chesse cubes. I also left out the dill because I didn't have any.

This is one heck of an easy and tasty recipe. I didn't measure everything precisely and used dried dill rather than fresh at a ratio of 3:1, meaning that I had to estimate what 1/3 of 1/4 of a cup looked like. I just shook the dried dill into the 1/4 measuring cup until I thought it looked 1/3 full. I shook maybe a half tablespoon of sugar into it too to give it a little sweetness. Tasted excellent. I couldn't wait so I ate about half of the batch by myself. Oops. :)

Growing up, I ate and loved my mom's pea salad so I had to try this spin on it. It was a little lacking as written, but has a lot of potential. It may be what I'm used to, but this screamed out a need for cubed sharp cheddar and a couple of hard boiled eggs. There was too much dressing without it and the salad needed more than just peas. I bought one of those small .25 oz containers of fresh dill and it didn't yield enough so I had to supplement with dried. This requires at least .5 oz! Next time I will increase the horseradish.

A lot of flexibility here to add your own ingredients and put this on a lot of different things, from veggies to fish, or as a dip.

My wife rated this A+ which she never does. OK, some prep remarks. I used frozen peas and put them in a colander under cold water for 3-4 minutes. Then placed them in a bowl with paper towels to wick away the moisture fro 10 minutes. Mixed the sauce and mixed sauce and peas together. I used dried dill for the sauce and garnished the completed peas with home grown dill; did not want to use up all of our garden dill. VERY easy recipe, fun to put together and works with any basic meal: had meatloaf and mashed potatoes along side.

I couldn’t believe how quickly I was able to make to make this and it was delicious! I used white pepper. Thank you for a great recipe!

Excellent! Used canned peas, doubled the dressing recipe and added cheese tortellini pasta! Also used fresh chopped dill!

Underwhelmed by this... only additions I made was to add some diced red pepper and red onion I had on-hand to give a little crunch... I love peas and the dressing is great - I did not use all of the dressing on the peas or it would have been swimming in it (instead I used the dressing on lentil burgers - great combo!)... When mixed together though they both just lost their flavor... I don't think I would make this again.

This is very much a salad for an outdoor spring / summer picnic. I made it as-is, no modifications. The dressing-to-peas ratio is too high, so I recommend increasing the amount of peas you use in order to balance that out more. The dill was the main star here, which I liked. If I make this again, I'll likely add some diced purple onion to it for color, flavor, and crunch.

I made the recipe exactly as written and the combination of horseradish and dill was very odd, not tasty at all.
