When you think pea salad you probably think about the heavy mayo ridden ones. Great in their own ways, but we decided to lighten ours up a bit. This one is fresh, crunchy, and has the most addicting bacon vinaigrette you'll be tempted to pour over everything. This is the perfect summer salad to take on a picnic in the park or to pair with Lemon Garlic Tilapia.
