SPRING SALAD WITH PEAS AND RADISHES 

(serves 1) 

• few handfuls of herb mixed lettuce greens (make sure they are washed and dried) 
• 2 spoonfuls of fresh or frozen peas 
• 1 radish, thinly sliced 
• 4 heirloom baby tomatoes, sliced (cherry works just fine) 
• Trader Joe's Shaved Cheese Blend 

for the dressing:

• juice from 1 small lemon
• 1 garlic clove, minced 
• about 1/4 c EVOO
• pinch of kosher salt 
• pinch of freshly cracked black pepper

Boil a small pot of water and prepare a bowl of ice water for blanching. Slice radish and tomatoes and set aside. Place peas into boiling water for 2-3 minutes and drain. Plunge immediately into ice bath. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, prepare the dressing. Mix ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together. Set aside. In a large bowl, toss salad greens with a couple spoonfuls of dressing. Finish with a pinch of salt and pepper. 

To serve - Take a large plate and place greens down first. Top with peas, radish slices, tomatoes and a generous spoonful of cheese. Drizzle with additional dressing if preferred. Serve immediately.
