I added frozen peas to the boiling noodles the last couple of minutes. I may have added too much onion. Liked the crunchiness of the salad. Thought it might have needed a little more mayo. Will definitely be using this recipe as a base to build from

Made this recipe exactly as written and thought it was great! Loved the fresh vegetables in it and the sweet and tangy dressing; not too much mayo. So much better than store bought. Will make again.
