Growing up, my family would go to Sunday brunch a few times a year, and I still remember going through the buffet line and loading up on… well, everything. From to to to to to desserts, all those delights will forever be etched in my memory.

Oh, and I was really, really hungry.
Despite all the other dishes competing for attention at Sunday brunch, the one I most remember was a delicious pea salad with big chunks of cheese, slivers of red onion, and a light, creamy dressing. I don’t even want to think about how many metric tons of the stuff I must have consumed through the years, but I loved it… and still love it every bit as much today.
