I've had this recipe for years. The green from the peas and the red skins on the potatoes make a very attractive (and delicious) side dish. It is outstanding served with salmon and a wonderful addition to a meat loaf meal. And best of all -- it's quite easy to prepare.

Tips:
- For the creamed mint peas, use fresh mint leaves for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but use half the amount.
- To make the creamed potatoes, use Yukon Gold potatoes. They are a good all-purpose potato that holds its shape well when cooked.
- For both recipes, use unsalted butter. This will allow you to control the amount of salt in the dish.
- Season the creamed peas and potatoes to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder for extra flavor.
- Serve the creamed peas and potatoes immediately after they are made. They are best when they are hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Creamed mint peas and potatoes are a classic side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste.
