Whats On Sale This Month – Peas
Over the past year I have made a real effort into learning how to eat healthy. I got points straight out the gate because I don't each much fast food - but I new/know NOTHING about healthy eating. One easy thing I found to change was buying real vs. canned vegis. I love vegetables - and this part was simple! Here's a great article about Peas!
You can save on groceries by buying in-season produce, and peas are on sale this month. Bursting with vitamin C, B vitamins, protein and fiber, these legumes are versatile and tasty—and only cost less than 35¢ per serving!
Try them in soups, salads, pastas and stir-fries, or enjoy on-the-go as a quick, nutritious snack.
Delicious varieties -
Look for the three most common types of peas at the grocery store to add different flavors to your meals:
- English: Also known as garden peas or green peas, these have inedible pods, so they must be shelled.
- Snow: These are delicious whole—simply trim the ends with kitchen shears. They're thinner and more delicate than sugar snaps.
- Sugar snap: A cross between English and snow peas, these have crunchy, edible pods. Snap off the stems and remove tough strings along the edges.
