Grilled Sugar Snap Peas With Bacon Ranch Dressing
Seasoned with garlic, honey and lemon zest, these Grilled Sugar Snap Peas are sweet and savory. A cross between snow peas and English peas, sugar snaps have an edible pod with small peas. They retain their crispiness when grilled and are irresistible when dipped in homemade bacon ranch dressing. These sweet, tender vegetables are delicious when served in a salad or as a side dish too.
