Just 4 ingredients and ready in 10 minutes! Easy Frozen Peas Recipe I don’t usually get excited about a bowl of green peas.I don’t mind them pureed in soup (like my Spring Pea Soup) or tucked into main dishes like this Chicken and Dumplings, or Ground Turkey Pea and Potato dish, but eating them on their own would never be my first choice.Peas have been trending all over my social feed lately, so I set out to make a pea side dish that tastes good.
Tossing a bag of frozen peas with the flavors of my favorite pasta dish, cacio e pepe was a game changer.The sharp Pecorino and black pepper balance the peas’ sweetness, while a little butter brings everything together.It’s a simple way to get a vegetable with fiber and plant-based protein on the table, whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a scaled up for a holiday meal.
Why This 10-Minute Pea Side Dish WorksI’m trying to get 25 to 30 grams of fiber each day, so I’m always looking for easy ways to add more to my meals.I never expected a bowl of peas to be something
