What a nice change from plain frozen peas! I wouldn't change a thing with this recipe, easy, quick, and tasty. Be careful not to cook too long, or the peas will get hard. (Don't ask me how I know that!) Thank you for help with supper!

I had a craving for peas and mushrooms and came across this recipe. I used oregano (same family as marjoram) since I had it on hand. I did use more butter than stated since I was going for a "butter sauce." Even though the rest of my family doesn't care for mushrooms, I decided to make these anyway (chef's right!) but everone seemed to eat their peas, anyway, so I will make these again! Thanks LonghornMama for posting. Roxygirl

A great, quick to put together recipe. I really enjoyed the nutmeg flavour. Thanks for sharing.

As the other reviewers mentioned, this was a very easy recipe to make.I liked the hint of nutmeg; on the other hand, the marjoram flavor really didn't come through for me--I think I would use a little bit more next time. Had this one with pork chops, a pleasant supper.

An easy fix-up for frozen peas. I cooked the peas in the microwave while I sauted the mushrooms and onions. Really enjoyed the combination of seasonings. This is an easy recipe, that I plan on keeping on hand. Thanks!
