Ingredients: 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard; 2 tablespoons lemon juice; 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided; Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper; 2 tablespoons shallots, finely chopped; 1½ pounds sugar snap peas, halved on the diagonal; 1 watermelon radish, halved and thinly sliced with a mandoline or knife; ¼ cup mint leaves, roughly chopped; ½ cup crumbled feta

This lovely seasonal salad comes together in minutes and is truly a showstopper. If you can’t find watermelon radish, you can substitute regular radish. A block of feta packed in water will always have more flavor than previously crumbled and packaged feta. For a delicious dinner, serve this delightful salad with a roast chicken or grilled salmon. Or, pack this salad to go for a terrific addition to a beach picnic. This video will teach you how to use a mandoline to make slicing easy so your salad comes together in a snap.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons shallots, finely chopped
1½ pounds sugar snap peas, halved on the diagonal
1 watermelon radish, halved and thinly sliced with a mandoline or knife
¼ cup mint leaves, roughly chopped
½ cup crumbled feta

Directions

In a small bowl, stir together the Dijon mustard, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Warm the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, season with salt and pepper and sauté, stirring occasionally until they are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the snap peas and toss them in the pan a few times to coat in olive oil. Sauté just until snap peas begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer the sugar snap peas to a serving bowl and add the Dijon dressing, tossing to combine. Add the watermelon radish, mint and feta and gently toss to combine. Season to taste one last time with salt and pepper and serve at once.
