Green Peas and Mushrooms

"This comes from "Light and Easy Diabetes Cuisine" by Betty Marks. I prefer to use fresh green peas if I have them; but it works well with frozen too."

  1. I must preface this with - I really dislike peas, however, my husband loves them. I have made them a few times over the years to appease him, I'll take a bite (like maybe two or three peas) just to say I tried them - he ends up eating the entire amount. I used fresh peas from our garden and made as directed (2 servings) and for the first time since I was a child (and had no choice) I ate an entire portion. Thank you Paula W for this simple, tasty recipe - anytime I prepare peas in the future it will be this recipe.
     
  2. This was good; I especially liked the addition of soy sauce as I felt it needed a little more flavor. I added allspice, used olive oil instead of vegetable and yellow onions instead of green to give it a little more bite. We served it over rice and lentils.

  4. This was a lovely dish Paula, great flavors and textures. It was quick and easy to put together and was a great side dish for our Steak Diane. We really enjoyed the addition of the soya sauce. Thanks for sharing. Made for Fearless Red Dragons - ZWT8 - India
     
  5. I used frozen peas, but I didn't boil them. I just threw them in the pan after sauteeing the mushrooms and onions. I also used butter instead of vegetable oil--the veggies deserved it! Thanks for posting. Made for the Lively Lemon Lovelies, ZWT8.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called. Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
