"You can use either snow peas or small sugar snap peas. Don't let the anchovies scare you - they add a wonderful element per the recipe. Recipe is from the "California Sizzles" cookbook. Note: blanched asparagus or green beans are also good accompaniments. Prep time does not include chill time. You can use the lighter versions of sour cream and cream cheese if you prefer."
