Peas And Beans With Lemon Dressing

---

I made this recipe several years ago, and the family loved it. The next time i went to make it i had lost the recipe, and tried to make it by memory but it was never the same. I found it again today in one of my old cookbooks, and now i know why it never turned out the same, i had forgotten half the ingredients! So i am posting it here on zaar, just in case i loose it again.
