Pea salad
This salad was inspired by a lentil salad we tried in a Lebanese restaurant we stumbled upon in Paris (this is our favorite way of finding great places to eat!). Back in Berlin, we recreated it using a photo and our imagination. You may ask how lentil salad became a pea salad? Artem took peas instead of lentils from the pantry by mistake but the result was so good, we decided to keep using peas.
This salad is great for a hot summer party or a picnic. Easy to transport and stays fresh in a sealed container for a few days.
