pretty sweet pea sprouts

Have you ever laid eyes on prettier sprouts?  I snatched up these sweet pea sprouts at the grocery store and set home to make a dinner salad with them.    

And this is how it evolved…

Crunchy, bright carrots…check.

Velvety black beans…check. 

Creamy, ripe avocado...check.

Dressed with lemon juice and sprinkled with sea salt and ground pepper.
