SUGAR-SNAP PEA AND STRAWBERRY SALAD



Sugar-Snap Pea and Strawberry Salad image

An easy way to use up strawberries (2 of those little green baskety thingies). Light and summery too. From the Diane Mott Davidson series about a caterer who solves murder mysteries. This one is from "The Main Corpse." I read them for the recipes! If you don't have sugar snap peas, snow peas or green beans work too.

Doing the eat-for-your-blood-type diet. This salad is a yummy treat I can eat!! Took fresh local strawberries and some friends' home-grown sugar snap peas and tried to recreate this salad I had read in a mystery book years ago. Goes well with a nice steak from the grill. Enjoy!
