Spring Sugar Snap Pea & Radicchio Chopped Salad (GF, DF, Vegan)
Hey There,
It’s finally Spring! Let’s celebrate being in bloom with a crunchy refreshing seasonal salad. Below is a recipe for a recent favorite of mine, Spring Sugar Snap Pea & Radicchio Chopped Salad. Adding the sweetness from dates in will help curb a sweet tooth too…
Ingredients:
-12oz. sugar snap peas (roughly 1.5-2 cups will work)
-1/2 head of radicchio, thinly sliced
-1/2 cup toasted pine nuts, cooled
-1/2 cup fresh dill, chopped
-1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
-6 dates, pitted & sliced
-Olive oil
-Lemon Juice
-Red wine vinegar
-Salt
-Pepper
-Optional: Crumbled sheep’s milk feta
Directions:
-Slice the sugar snap peas lengthwise & add to a large salad bowl.
-Add the sliced radicchio, toasted pine nuts, chopped dill, chopped mint leaves, & sliced dates to the bowl as well, mixing with your hands to evenly combine.
-In a small bowl to the side, whisk together your simple dressing using olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, salt, & pepper. Feel free to add the lemon zest or a touch of honey in as well.
-If dairy is tolerated, add a bit of crumbled sheep’s milk feta into the salad bowl along with everything else & top with the dressing. Gently toss to evenly coat.
-Taste & adjust seasoning with any extra lemon juice, salt, or pepper your like. Serve in individual bowls or enjoy straight out of the big salad bowl!
