This sugar snap pea and lemon salata is bright, fresh and so delicious! It’s the perfect light and flavor packed side dish! I love how the lemon zest comes through and you get a great bite from the lemon juice and red wine vinegar with saltiness from the parmesan cheese and the perfect kick from the black pepper and the crisp earthiness from the snap peas.
I use grated Parmesan cheese in this recipe but you can use shredded or shaved if you want to. For the snap peas, I roughly chop them so they are bite sized and reminiscent of a chopped salad.
This salad will serve 2 as a side dish or 1 as a main course and will take only a few minutes to pull together, it’s super easy.
