Green Peas — photo 1

Green peas are the young seeds of the pea plant, most often bought frozen and served as a side or added to soups, rice and pasta. An 80 g portion gives about 60 kcal, 4 g of protein and 3.6 g of fiber, more protein than most vegetables, with useful thiamin, vitamin K and folate. Frozen peas carry a little sodium from processing: 72 mg per 100 g here, compared with almost none in fresh peas.
