Serve this light, bright salad for lunch with a piece of grilled chicken or fish.
In a large bowl, combine 1 pound trimmed sugar snap peas (strings removed, if necessary), sliced 1/4 inch thick on the diagonal, 1 cup finely chopped red onion, 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Let stand, tossing occasionally, 10 minutes.
