I grew up on those cans of pre-cooked green beans. In fact, that was probably the number-one vegetable side dish at the dinner table. Today, as I mentioned with frozen peas, if it is properly seasoned, properly/creatively prepared and or utilized in a larger dish creatively, it’s hard to go wrong. Leave the Catholic guilt at the door, Megan!

Some vegetables don’t freeze as well, and turn into near-complete mush when defrosted. I cannot tell you how many times I’ll be nearly finished cooking a dish, only to add frozen peas at the last minute, in an effort to add a little something extra. Like I said, great little green things.

I unfortunately did not take any of these pea photos myself, as photography isn’t my strongest suit. I’m generally a point-and-shoot type of person, but I will admit I also don’t have the best camera equipment to begin with.

I use them in risotto, pasta dishes, stews, etc. They’re versatile and suffer little from the freezing.

Did you take the peas photos yourself? They’re great!
