    As a kid I hated peas but now they are one of my favorites. This recipe could have made me fall in love with them sooner! Thank you

    I've always liked peas but they can be boring. This peps them up a bit. Another nice "pepper upper" is to add some chopped fresh mint.

    We like green beans cooked this way but I never thought of doing peas this way. Sounds delicious!
