Ingredients

Salad:

  • 1 pound sugar snap peas
  • 1 ½ cups arugula-baby spinach combo
  • ⅔ cup fresh blueberries

Dressing:

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 Tbs white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbs honey
  • 1 Tbs slivered almonds

Directions

  1. Cut ends off snap peas and pull off the tough strings running up the sides.
  2. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add snap peas, cover, and steam for 1 minute or until you reach desired tenderness. Don’t overcook because you still want a little crunch.
  3. Transfer peas to a bowl of ice water for a few minutes to stop the cooking and retain the bright green color; drain well. Transfer peas to a large bowl and add arugula-spinach combo and 2/3 cup blueberries.
  4. Combine oil, blueberries, vinegar, and honey for dressing in a food processor or blender; process until smooth.
  5. Drizzle dressing over salad mixture and toss until well coated. Sprinkle almonds over the top and serve.
