OUTSTANDING way to dress up the lowly pea! We love 'em but often just have them combined with brown rice! This recipe is so quick & easy, & the resulting peas are exceptionally tasty! No doubt about this being a great keeper recipe! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

I made these exactly as directed, delicious, I loved that citrus tang!!! The ONE thing I changed, I used vegetable stock. So easy, a lovely variant on a favourite vegetable, thank you Debs! A keeper! Made for the P-A-R-T-Y! tag game
