I'm usually one of the last people to order a salad; I don't find them very satisfying. However, this snap pea spring salad is everything I never knew I was missing.
It's filled with all the best ingredients that spring has to offer. Snap peas, cucumbers, radishes, and the best part - creamy burrata cheese. Am I the only one that wants to practically swim in burrata cheese? Or use it as my pillow? It's just so lush. Someone please tell me I'm not alone there!
It's also topped off with a delicious and bright lemony vinaigrette that perfectly compliments the other ingredients and makes them shine.
Am I on a lemon kick lately? Maybe.....definitely. I can't help it.
You can also add a protein to to this springy salad to make it more of a meal. I would recommend shrimp or some grilled chicken!
