Snow peas provide up to 60% of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin C. And like other legumes, snow peas have:
Layer shrimp, snow peas and your favorite veggies on skewers. Drizzle with a mixture of garlic, canola oil, soy sauce, lemon juice and honey. Cook on a hot grill for 10 to 12 minutes.
Steam snow peas and broccoli until slightly tender. Let cool, and combine with shredded red cabbage and orange wedges. Drizzle with a dressing of olive oil, vinegar, shallots, salt and orange juice.
