I remember my grandmother making this pea salad. I've updated it and added a few more ingredients. It goes with almost any meal as a side dish. So good with bbq ribs, pork chops, chicken, ham, any meat really. I even like it just by itself. The curry powder gives it it's umph. Adjust the ingredients to suit your taste.
Mix all in a bowl and toss to cover. Chill.
The curry powder gives it "it's taste". I put curry powder in most all my salads; egg, potato, macaroni, tuna, salmon. I just add until I think it tastes just right. Really good with ribs, chops, ham, anything!
The cooking time is for boiling the eggs. Maybe 15 minutes. Nothing else needs to be cooked. I prepare the other ingredients while waiting on the eggs to boil.

This quick recipe can be made ahead, and put in the 'fridge until time to eat. It is also one of those recipes that goes "quick"at a covered dish dinner.
In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, relish and seasonings. Stir into pea mixture. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
