Nope, not even a hint of caviar in this. This dish makes an appearance at most summer barbecues in Texas. The dressing doesn’t contain any mayonnaise, which makes it safer for picnics and barbecues where it might be sitting out for hours in the heat. The fresh vegetables lend a nice contrast to the creamy peas, and the tangy vinaigrette finishes it all off rather well.
