About Peas, green, raw

Green peas are the small, sweet seeds shelled from their pods — a comfort-food staple for generations, whether fresh, frozen or simmered into soups. Frozen peas, picked and chilled at their peak, are often sweeter and more nutritious than 'fresh' ones that have sat around losing their sugar.

Unlike most vegetables, peas bring a real hit of plant protein and fiber, which makes them more filling and a touch higher in calories than leafy greens. On top of that they supply vitamin C, vitamin K, thiamin, folate and a good dose of antioxidants.

Sweet, versatile and always on hand in the freezer, peas are one of the easiest ways to add protein, fiber and a pop of color to almost any plate.
