:::::::::::::::::::::: TODAY'S RECIPE ::::::::::::::::::::::
Moms are always looking for new things to do with vegetables so kids
will like them, and this is one recipe your mom is going to want to
keep. Be sure to get the help of an adult if you have never used a
sharp knife or don't know how to use the stove.
Minted Peas
2 to 3 cups (500 to 750 ml) frozen peas
4 tsp (20 ml) chopped fresh mint leaves (about 8 to 10 leaves)
2 tsp (10 ml) grated lemon peel (only the yellow part)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 Tbs (30 ml) olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Boil the peas according to the directions on the package. Carefully
drain the peas by pouring them, along with the water they boiled in,
into a strainer set in the sink. Watch out, because the steam can
burn you. Return the peas to the pot and add the remaining
ingredients. Stir the peas to combine all the ingredients, and serve
while they are hot. Serves 4 to 6.
