Name: Mother's Pea Salad
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 10 min
Ingredients: 1 (18 ounce) bag frozen peas, thawed, not cooked; 1 cup water chestnut (chopped); 1 medium onion, chopped fine (fresh); 2 eggs, hard boiled and chopped; 2 teaspoons pimientos, diced; 2 tablespoons bacon bits (I use breakfast bacon and crumble); 2 tablespoons thousand island dressing; 1/2 cup Miracle Whip; salt and pepper

This was a recipe that my Mother fixed quite often, she loved it.  I usually take it to showers and potlucks, always get requests for the recipe.  Was requested by so many people at church that we finally put it in the newsletter.  I think you will like this, it is different from most pea salads.

Absolutely delicious!!  I took this to a quilting meeting/potluck lunch yesterday, and it was everybody's favorite part of the lunch!!  They all want the recipe.  I only had a little left over to bring home to DH, but he was might glad i did!  He, who doesn't really care much for peas, raved about it!  I followed the recipe exactly except that I didn't measure the pinientos.  I just used the whole tiny little 2 oz. jar.  This is a great dish to take to any gathering.  Thank you so much for sharing!
