These were made at the spur of the moment- today and they tasted great. This recipe will taste good over toast or biscuits with a little ham chopped up into it or just the peas.

Tips:
- Choose fresh or frozen peas: Fresh peas are best, but frozen peas are a great option when fresh peas are not available. Frozen peas are usually picked at their peak freshness and frozen quickly to preserve their flavor and nutrients.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Try adding other vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, or bell peppers.
- Cook the peas until they are tender but still have a slight bite: Overcooked peas will be mushy and lose their flavor.
- Season the peas to taste: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as paprika, cumin, or cayenne pepper.
- Serve the peas immediately: Peas are best served fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, cook them according to the recipe and then store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them gently before serving.
