Pea shoot salad with sesame soy dressing

Springtime = Salad time in my mind. Something light for lunch? Yes please! I find pea shoots at the Asian grocery store. Sometimes they are out of stock. Actually a lot of times. If you can't find them, you could use watercress, bok choy, tatsoi, even mixed greens.


Pea Shoot Salad 
(serves 1 BIG salad, or 2 small salads)

big handful of pea shoots, torn
4 radishes, sliced
1 carrot, julienned
small handful of sugar snap peas, halved
small handful shelled edamame
1 Tbs sesame seeds

Sesame Soy Dressing

1 Tbs sesame oil
1 Tbs agave syrup or honey
1Tbs rice wine vinegar
2 Tbs soy sauce

Note: I soak the carrots in cold water for about 15 minutes to make them sweeter.
