In an effort to eat a more healthy diet, more people are turning to vegetables and looking for interesting ways to cook them. Chinese cooking has used pea pods and pea shoots as a staple for centuries, and Eastern-style cooking has developed greater traction in many western countries including the United States and Canada. Pea shoots, pea sprouts and baby spinach are quite similar in nutritional value and cooking properties and can be used almost interchangeably.
