Delicious and a change of pace for us. Used marjoram. Appreciate that you only use 1 pan. Thank you ElaineAnn for sharing.

These peas are great! I usually do not like frozen veggies unless mixed in a casserole but these are very good! I left out the celery for DH and used dill. Will be making again!! Made for Week 8 Football Pool win 2010.

What a yummy side these sweet little peas were. Made using a 16 ounce size bag of frozen peas and the dill weed option, also left out the celery. Will definitely be making these tasty peas again. Thanks for the post.

I absolutely have to have peas alongside meatloaf and made this dish. It was very simple and loved the onions, celery, and marjoram in them. Thanks ElaineAnn for a nice keeper. Congrats again on your Week 8 win in the Football Pool!

I was looking for something new to do w/some frozen peas. Glad I found this. Dtr in law loved them as did my husband. My only changes were I used 16 oz of peas and instead of marjoram I used It's a Dilly no salt seasoning...and closer to 1/2 tsp. They were yummy and I will be making again!!

I couldn't figure out what to serve along side my chicken sandwich until I found this recipe. It is delicious. I cut my onions and celery quite small and added dill instead of marjoram. Just what I needed to compliment my sandwich. Thanks ElaineAnne for a great recipe.
