CREAMED PEAS WITH MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS.
Yummy side dish. I love peas! Use low fat milk for a lighter sauce or half and half for a richer sauce. I usually use what I have on hand. Sometimes I add a small handful of swiss cheese and a small handful of grated parmesean cheese to make it even yummier! I also find canned mushrooms work well in this if you are not against all things canned :) This is from southern cooking.

Tips:

- Use a good quality cream. Heavy cream or whipping cream will give you the richest and creamiest sauce. You can also use half-and-half or milk, but the sauce will be thinner.
- Season the peas well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all classic seasonings for creamed peas. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or nutmeg.
- Cook the peas until they are tender but still have a slight bite. Overcooked peas will be mushy. You should see a small dent on the edge of the pea when you press it.
- Serve creamed peas immediately. They are best when they are fresh and hot. You can also make creamed peas ahead of time and reheat them before serving.
Conclusion:
Creamed peas are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make creamed peas that are creamy, flavorful, and perfect for any occasion.
