This feta and pea salad is a simple, flavorful side that comes together in minutes—perfect when you need something quick to accompany a meal.
I discovered this recipe a while back and was eager to try it because peas are usually served very plainly in our house. After tweaking the original a bit, I found the result delicious. Even my husband, who claims not to like peas, enjoyed it—after one reluctant bite he quietly went back for more.
With just a few pantry staples you can turn frozen peas into a bright, tangy salad. The dressing balances olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey and Dijon mustard, and the radishes and green onions add crunch and freshness. Crumbled feta brings a salty, creamy finish that ties everything together.
