Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh sugar snap peas, trimmed

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped

2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon honey

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peas: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the sugar snap peas and blanch them for about 1-2 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain again and pat dry.

    Combine Vegetables: In a large salad bowl, combine the blanched sugar snap peas, halved cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion. Give it a gentle toss to mix the vegetables evenly.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined and emulsified.

        Add Final Touches: Pour the dressing over the salad mixture. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients thoroughly.

          Add Toppings: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese, toasted walnuts, and chopped mint over the salad. Toss lightly to mix.

            Serve: Transfer the salad to a serving platter and enjoy immediately, or chill for 15-20 minutes before serving for an even more refreshing taste.
