You can also buy these peas canned but they are quite expensive and are so easy to make. These peas are also common in England as Pub Fare. I love them served with good Bangers (sausages) and a green saladWhat we call Baking soda in Canada is known elsewhere as bicarbonate of soda.

I made these mushy peas without the butter and they were still delicious. They're a great low-fat, high-fiber side dish.

My kids love these mushy peas! They're a great way to get them to eat their vegetables. I usually serve them with chicken nuggets or fish sticks.

These mushy peas are always a crowd-pleaser at my parties. They're easy to make ahead of time and they travel well. I usually serve them with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chives.

I made these mushy peas into a soup by adding some vegetable broth and a few other ingredients. It was a delicious and easy way to warm up on a cold night.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover peas. I usually have a bag of frozen peas in my freezer, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in. Plus, it's a very affordable side dish.

I added a pinch of cayenne pepper to my mushy peas and it gave them a nice little kick. I also used a combination of fresh mint and parsley, which I thought added a lot of flavor. Yum!

I love that this recipe uses fresh peas instead of frozen or canned. It makes a big difference in the flavor. I also appreciate that it's a relatively healthy side dish, especially when compared to other traditional Irish fare.

These mushy peas were a hit at my last dinner party! They were creamy, flavorful, and the perfect accompaniment to my roasted chicken. I'll definitely be making them again.
