Pea Shoots with Cashews

I grow peas every year and find their tender shoots a great addition to many dishes. I trim off young, tender shoots and add them to soups, salads and stir fries. Older shoots may have tough stems. If that is the case I’ll just use the leaves. Last night for dinner I had a great veggie stir fry with onions, baby bok choy, nappa cabbage, baby peppers and pea shoots. I added some cashews for texture and tossed with soba noodles.
