Ingredients

  • 16 oz frozen peas
  • ½ red onion , diced
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese , cubed
  • 3 tablespoons crumbled bacon pieces (I used the store-bought bacon pieces for ease)
  • 3 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper , to taste

Instructions

  • Pour frozen peas into a strainer and rinse with warm water. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, and garlic powder. Stir to combine.
  • Add in red onion, cheese, and bacon pieces. Mix well. Add frozen peas to dressing, season with salt and pepper. Stir to thoroughly combine.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Salad will keep refrigerated for up to 5 days.
  • Salad is very versatile depending on your tastes. Feel free to swap out mayonnaise with sour cream or Miracle Whip, add in tomatoes, black olives, etc.
