You know what makes me happy?  Veggies that aren’t boring.

It makes them so much more fun to prepare.

And eat!

These particular beauties are from Grimmway Farm’s Cal-Organic.  They were fresh and crisp from the grocery store and were the prefect base for this salad.  

The other major players in this tasty, textural patchwork of flavors are…

Crimson raisins.  I didn’t have to go far for these as I live near the Raisin Capital of the World!

 Fun and popular pea shoots from Sun Grown Organics

And of course, crisp and crunchy pistachios to round out the dish.

All tossed in a tangy dressing 

After all the ingredients are prepared and tossed in the dressing, we top the salad with pistachios and feta cheese.  

Holy mother of yum!

All those flavors, married together, just waiting to be devoured.  I think my favorite part is the crunch of the pistachios balanced with the softness of the raisins. 

The seasoned dressing blends all the tastes and textures together beautifully.  

Serve it at your next family get-together or better yet, take it to this year’s Easter celebration!  

I promise, everyone will love it!

Here is the recipe for ya…
