This is a favorite in my family. It is an easy no cook recipe.
6 cups fresh shelled sweet peas or 2- 12 oz bags frozen peas (thawed and rinsed)
1 small red onion, minced finely
1 can water chestnuts, drained and coarsely chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar, pepper jack or colby jack cheese
1/2 cup bacon bits
1 cup mayonnaise
Combine ingredients in large bowl. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
