A zesty mayonnaise dressing is a deliciously different twist in this chilled salad. You can substitute fresh peas for the frozen ones if desired. Ingredients:

1 cup frozen peas, thawed |
1 medium red onion, chopped |

1/2 cup creamy italian salad dressing |
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley |
1/2 teaspoon dill weed |
