Eastern Redbud flowers resemble the taste and texture of sprouts, but with a brilliant color and a tinge of sourness. This quick lunch uses them in place of alfalfa sprouts for a sandwich that reminds me of a California picnic. Eat this with a bag of extra salty chips and a herby spritz on the side.

“nice.” - me, testing this recipe

Ingredients

1 cup redbud flowers
OR 1 cup alfalfa sprouts
