Steamed Snap Pea and Asparagus Salad with Radish

In this recipe both the snap peas and asparagus cook for the same amount of time, so they can be combined and cooked in the perforated pan that comes with the oven. For a heartier salad some quinoa can be steamed at the same time and combined with the cooked vegetables and dressing.
