Home Garden Pea Tips with Beets, Chickpeas, Potatoes

Pea tips with Papaya salad is quite wholesome and I make it every once in a while in late autumn and early winter when pea tips are available in the market easily.

Pea tips themselves can be an acquired taste. The tips have to be tender, not chewy/woody/fibrous. Since I had a bunch of pea plants in the garden, ready to be retired, I went through and snipped some pea tips for sautéing.

Some marinated beets, and new potatoes from the garden, plus snap peas and spicy chickpeas rounded out the plate.

These would be perfect over some bulgur or cous cous or even some brown rice, presented as a Buddha Bowl, a hearty vegetarian fare.
