Creamy Bacon Pea Salad

I was up early one morning and trolling Facebook.  In my feed was a recipe for Creamy Bacon Pea Salad.  I’m a huge fan of pea salad.  I like mine with hard boiled eggs but this recipe didn’t have hard boiled eggs in it.  There was bacon in it though….so I thought about giving it a try.

At our house, I am the salad eater.  Hubby…nice guy that he is, is not a salad or a soup guy.  He’s a meat and potatoes and bread kind of guy….and desserts.  Don’t forget desserts.  Me, I’m a soup and salad kind of girl.  I like veggies.  I love fruit….I do like meat too.  Anyway, when I make a salad I know I’m pretty much on my own to eat it.  Sometimes I try to sneak a salad in to the childcare kiddos but they aren’t the best eaters of something like that either.

I had bacon that needed to be used…I had some ranch in the frig that the childcare kids don’t like that was bacon flavored so I thought- Hey, I could use both of them up if I make this recipe so I did.  Here’s what it looked like.

To me it looked pretty yummy.

Here’s Carver.  He was helping me make the salad.  The second I put the scraper down he had it and was trying to lick it.

I can’t make a new recipe without giving it a try even if it is breakfast time.  So this was my breakfast.   I say two thumbs up. I did alter the recipe slightly by adding a little garlic powder…I’m a garlic lover.
