Sugar Snap Peas and Baby Peas
Sooo, this was me trying to be “healthier” and that is in quotation marks because being mindful about food is a very foreign concept for me…. And let’s face it, the “sugar” in “sugar snap peas” is very misleading!
I wish I could tell you that this is the best dish ever but the reality was that I couldn’t wait to finish the bowl so I could move on with life. I know, I know, what could I expect from a dish largely composed of peas? My (normally) sugar saturated taste buds couldn’t figure out why I’d repeatedly put this food in my mouth. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t bad by any means…. I just probably won’t make it again.
That being said, I believe I did myself an injustice by not eating it with a bit of protein since it is a good side dish. I’m sure it would’ve gone down easier if I could’ve taken a break from the peas by eating a bite of chicken, or a candy bar any other savory dish. Trust me, I’m aware my diet needs a LOT of work. Maybe next week I’ll manage to gush about beets. Or be abducted by aliens. Both are equally likely.
If a whole bunch of peas sounds delightful to you, you can find the recipe on Cutco’s website here
