Instructions

- Sprinkle the red onion and celery over top, then sugar and the peas (previously cooked and chilled).
- Spread a layer of mayo over the top, just so the peas are covered, touching all sides. Sprinkle the bacon or bacon substitute and finish with a layer or parmesan (the more, the better).
