Cauliflower yuck.
Mods pull at your discretion.
Love peas and mashed potatoes.
Imagine whirled peas!
Cauliflower can be quite good if prepared properly. Mashed cauliflower and cauliflower “rice” is quite good. Need some butter.
Once you put enough butter on them for them to be edible they aren’t that healthy anymore.
With gravy!
I eat my peas with honey,
I’ve done so all my life.
It makes them taste so funny,
but keeps them on the knife.
I tolerate peas but my heart belongs to chocolate — the queen of vegetables. (King being coffee.)
Bring it on!!
Give peas a chance!
My dogs love peas and carrots.
I love peas, especially with a good Tuna Casserole. The mushy ones in England not so much. Whoever decided to serve Fish n Chips with Mushy Peas should be shot. Fish n Chips goes with Cole Slaw n hush puppies.
I was a daily cold-can-of-peas consumer for decades.
Then, about five years ago, the quality started going down, for every brand, so I guess it is a national problem.
I like a trace of salt and sugar in every bite. I also like my peas to have soft exterior skin, and a mushy and moist interior.
Today, every brand of canned peas has almost no salt or sugar, the pea shell is thick and firm, and the interior is dense, dry, and tasteless.
I have moved on to green beans, which are a distant second place to good peas, but the same price, and still edible.
Mashed cauliflower is my favorite. I make it with cream cheese and butter. You can add gravy, too.
LOVE peas. But, my favorite are field peas (white acre peas). Also a big fan of lima beans.
Green peas will save the whales.
😁
Split Pea Soup in the pot. I added smoked chipotle peppers
Outdated thinking. With a diet of healthy foods, proportions, and percentages, it almost impossible to eat too much butter.
I’ve loved most vegetables since I was a kid.But Lima beans,Brussels sprouts,squash and peas aren’t one of them.
