MOM'S "THE BEST" LETTUCE/PEA SALAD
My mom has made this as long as I can remember. It is a crunchy, very tasty salad. It is a "must have" dish at our family gatherings and holidays. It makes a large quanity, but almost never has much leftover. What there is left is fought over to take home! I tried using another brand mayo and making this salad the day of serving, but did not taste as well. For the best salad, use Hellmans real mayo and make this the nite before. If you are a salad fan, I guarantee you will be addicted to this salad. I've also eaten variations with green peppers, canned peas and eggs, but I love this combination the best. Mom never has any complaints, but then, she's the best cook I know! The prep time doesn't include the "drying" time for the lettuce/peas and the overnite time in the fridge.

AMAZING FRUIT/LETTUCE SALAD
I made this and took it to a party last weekend and is it ever knock your socks off good! To make it I chopped the lettuce up and put into one bowl and mixed the fruit and put into another bowl and refrigerated until time to serve. Just mix it all together and add the dressing and stand back! There weren't any leftovers. I'm just guessing on the servings because I didn't count. LOL! It makes a ton though!
