Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed, strings removed
5 ounces (6 cups) mixed salad greens
5 scallions, thinly sliced diagonally
2 small zucchini, thinly sliced into ribbons with a vegetable peeler
1/3 cup fresh basil, large leaves torn
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (not seasoned)
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon honey
Coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add sugar snap peas, and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain, and transfer to ice-water bath. Drain again.
  • Toss peas, greens, scallions, zucchini, and basil in a large bowl. Whisk together vinegar, oil, lemon juice, ginger, honey, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Drizzle dressing over salad, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Toss to coat, and serve immediately.

This salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I like to add some avocado or grilled shrimp.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or fish. I also like to add some chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the strawberries, the tartness of the goat cheese, and the bitterness of the arugula all come together perfectly.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover spring vegetables. I had some asparagus, snap peas, and radishes that were about to go bad, so I threw them all in this salad and it turned out great!
