Mushy peas are a great side dish with fried cod or salmon. You can add more liquid (water or cream) depending on how mushy you want your peas. Use low-fat milk if you're calorie-conscious.
Ingredients
- frozen green peas: 1 pack (10 ounce pack)
- heavy cream: 0.25 cup
- butter: 1 Tbsp
- salt: 0.5 tsp
- black pepper: 0.5 tsp (freshly ground)
