PEA **** Mint Pea Salad - 2 Points

By Unblond1

I liked this quite a bit, although Dan didn't care for the mint. I wouldn't make it without fresh peas, however.

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh shelled peas
• 2 scallions, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup plain yogurt
• 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• Juice and zest of 1/2 lemon
• Coarse salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 4 tablespoons mint, chopped fine
• 4 slices crisp cooked bacon, crumbled

Preparation

Step 1

* Bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil. Blanch peas for about 1 minute, rinsing in ice water so that they remain bright green and crisp. Drain and set aside to dry.

* In a medium bowl, mix yogurt with mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice, salt and pepper, and fold in remaining ingredients. Refrigerate covered.
