Where do you find pea leaves, Chuck? Looks like a great salad for company.
ReplyDeleteHi Joe, Pea leaves are hard to come by unless you are growing peas in the garden! I use them because they are so tender and adds color. You could use any tender leaf of your choice, maybe baby spinach leafs perhaps.
ReplyDeleteJoe I sent you a couple heads of garlic, Enjoy :)
Thank you.
Hi Sophie! We must live the divine life as much as we can!! Flavors were right in this salad!
