"This has a cooked dressing that is combined with mayonnaise to create the most wonderful creamy dressing! I like to add in some cooked cubed deli ham and frozen thawed peas but that is optional. This dressing will seem sweet after it is cooked but will mellow out after chilling time, this salad must be chilled for a minimum of 8 hours or up to 24 hours before serving, all amounts may be adjusted to taste. Prep time includes chilling time."
