I love this recipe. I've made it for a hundred years, and it always goes fast. Because of all the great seasonings, you can use fat-free mayo, and it still tastes YUMMY! It's supposed to serve 6. Yeah, right.
PEAS AND PEANUT SLAW
20 oz. frozen peas
8 cups finely shredded cabbage
3 large green onions, thinly sliced
3/4 cup fat-free mayo
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2+ teaspoon curry powder
Dash pepper
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons wine vinegar
1 1/2 cups salted Spanish-style peanuts
Turn peas into collander and run hot water over them to thaw; drain well. In large bowl combine peas, cabbage and onion. set aside. Combine mayo, salt, curry powder, pepper, mustard and vinegar; pour over cabbage mixture and mix lightly. Cover and chill for several hours. Before serving, stir in peanuts.
Serves 6.

Hi Bev,
This recipe looks exotic and interesting! I would like to try it but I have one question.
What is Spanish-style peanuts? Is that different from regular salted peanuts you get at grocery stores?
Thanks!

Oh yeah, absolutely. You don't want regular peanuts, no no. The can will definitely say, "SPANISH-style Peanuts." They're smaller than peanuts and much more flavorful (in fact, to be honest, I use the whole can!).
I just had this for lunch just a few minutes ago with a little sourdough bread. YUMMMMMMMMMM. (Okay, so I now have a little gas -- but no big deal.)
Enjoy!

Oh, OK. I have never even noticed this kind of peanuts before, but it's not like I have been paying a lot of attention to peanuts either. 
I will find spanish peanuts for this recipe.
Thanks Bev!
