Pasta Pea & Pepper Salad
"This salad can be served hot or cold! Tastes great either way! Have also made this with can corn on really hot day instead of the peas & I don't even heat the corn--I throw it right in right out of the can into the dressing! Great dish!"

I really like the main ingredients here, especially the split peas! But the dressing was just bland- obviously that would vary by brand if using bottled, but I'm going to look for another dressing for this salad combination.
