Croissant with Ham, Swiss Cheese, English Cucumber and Organic Pea Shoots

I normally do not eat sandwiches, but when I do, I enjoy making them with a buttery croissant. They are so moist, tender and flaky, who couldn’t resist?  So to counter the calories, I made it with slices of cooked ham, some delicious Swiss cheese, English cucumber slices and for that crunch, organic pea shoots. I added a swipe of some Dijon mustard for a little tang. I love these crunchy, pea shoot greens! They are high in vitamin C, provide 2 grams of fiber and taste like fresh picked peas. They are a great alternative to lettuce. No need to add anything else but to just enjoy!
