Directions

1. Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, and sugar until smooth.

2. Combine: Gently fold in the thawed peas, cheddar cheese, red onion, celery, and dill until evenly coated.

3. Season: Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. For best flavor, cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour (or overnight).

4. Serve chilled, garnished with extra dill or cheese if desired.

Tip: For extra texture, add crispy bacon bits or swap half the peas with blanched green beans!
