Slaw-like strands of fresh snow peas tangle with crunchy toasted walnuts and soft pillows of avocado into the dead simple salad I can’t get enough of right now.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Soak snow peas in a large bowl of ice water for 10 to ⏱️ 20 minutes (longer is fine too). Drain and pat dry with a towel. Gather the peas in small stacks at a time and cut them lengthwise into thin ribbons.
2
Chop walnuts into rubble-sized pieces and place in a large bowl. Add olive oil, lemon juice, ½ to 1 teaspoon kosher salt (to taste), many grinds of black pepper, and pepper flakes to taste (I use ½ teaspoon). Whisk to combine. Add snow peas and toss until the vegetables are coated. Add avocado and gently toss until combined. Eat right away.

The lemon juice in the dressing discolors the snow peas a little over time, so if planning ahead, I add the walnut dressing right before serving.
