Notes

You can do any variation of the salad, in our video we make a simple field pea salad with some baby spinach add cucumber slices and halved cherry tomatoes.

The pea shoots add such a different flavor, a great way to get more anti-oxidents from the microgreens and to help stave off salad boredom.

If you can find them with the flowers in tact that makes a beautiful presentation!
