2 doz. fresh snow pea pods
1/8 lb. deli roast beef, sliced paper thin
4 oz. (1/2 of 8 oz. pkg.) cream cheese, softened
1/4 c. sour cream
1 tsp. curry powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. granulated sugar

Trim stem and remove strings from sides of each pod. Blanch pea pods in lightly salted, boiling water 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water. Using a sharp knife, slit each pea pod open along straight edge.

Cut 24 (2 x 3-inch) pieces from roast beef. In a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Spread about 1 teaspoon of filling in each pea pod; tightly roll a piece of roast beef and insert into pod. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm.

Yield: About 2 dozen snow peas.
