Great, except the eggs need to go and the pimento is not optional. I also add a little more Mayo! I'll have to try the cheese/velvetta!

I usually put in some velvetta cheese cut into small squares. Really brings out the taste of the peas.

My mom made this salad for years and passed the recipe down to our family. But we add cheese chopped into small pieces to ours. It's very good. She always used Velveeta, but I've experimented and used different types of my favorite cheeses. All are tasty.

Nice simple twist on a dish from my childhood. Very economical also.

Good recipe. I add diced water chestnuts to this as well for some crunch.
