    0 votes

    Ingredients

    • 1 can (17oz.) small sweet peas, well liquid removed
    • 2 Tbsp. Homemade mayonaise *(I use Miracle Whip Lite and it's fine)
    • 1/2 c. Finely minced onion *(I use red onion)
    • 1/3 c. Finely minced celery
    • 1/4 c. Finely minced bell pepper
    • 1/4 c. Finely minced sweet gherkin pickles
    • 1/4 c. Finely minced green olives with pimientos
    • 1 1/2 tsp Salt
    • 1/2 tsp Black pepper
    • 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
    • 2 x Hard boiled Large eggs, thinly sliced *(I use a large dice)

    Directions

    1. It comes from the New Orleans family of Chefs...The Prudhommes. Here is.....
    2. In a medium bowl combine peas with all other ingredients except Large eggs, mixing thoroughly. Add in egg slices and stir gently so egg slices will not break up. Chill till well chilled, at least 2 hrs.
    3. *Note: If you can wait, your stronger than us. We just eat it right away. and at this point, if you're of a mind to, I see absolutely no reason not to go ahead and include some large diced cheddar cheese. My momma would'of!!
    4. If anyone would like the "Hard-Boiled Egg Mayonaise" recipe from this same family to include in this recipe, let me know and I'll type it out, but these days most people are not want to use raw egg products. I know it says hard boiled, and which's true, but there's still a raw yolk in there, so I do not use it. As I say, Miracle Whip Lite works JUST FINE....enjoy!
