Lemony Black-Eyed Pea and Cilantro Salad

Recipe #80996 | 2 hours | 2 hours prep | add private note

This is delicious, low-fat and super-easy ... I like to load it up with extra cilantro and tomatoes. Also try using lime juice in place of the lemon juice for a little different taste. It's a perfect vegetarian main dish salad, or serve it as a side dish with grilled or roasted pork or ham. Prep time includes time spent in the refrigerator blending flavors; yield depends on whether salad is eaten as the main dish or as a side dish.

The perfect one dish meal for a hot summer evening. This is a lively, healthy and colorful combination of flavors. I used the juice from one lemon, green onions and approximately 1 tsp of dried cilantro, which were the only changes I made. Thanks, EdsgirlAngie

    Absolutely and perfectly wonderful!! I followed the directions exactly, and the result was even yummier than I hoped. Such a great part of a summer meal because it's so cool and refreshing. I had this with Turkish Chicken Thighs, but it would be wonderful next to any chicken or steak or even just alone for a healthy vegetarian meal. Wow. Thanks for sharing a real keeper!

    Delicious, sure to become a regular. I sauteed the onion and garlic though as I don't like them raw. Made me think, how about serving this as a side to a mess of roasted veggies such as peppers, onion slabs, a couple of varieties of potatoes. Then add some cornbread or rice and voila! Mmmm...can't wait til tommorrow night!

    Absolutely YUM! Everyone should try this. I used lime juice, and it took me exactly 5 minutes to throw it together. Very good over fresh greens.
