Pea Quenelles
Is There a More Fancy Look For Peas?
Simple, tasty and glamorous looking pea quenelles.
To be honest they are really not much more than a fancy way of serving mushy peas. But if you do not tell anyone, I am sure no one will notice…
These make a great side dish for a dinner party or addition to your regular weeknight dinners.

Thank you for being honest….”they are really not much more than a fancy way of serving mushy peas” the only problem is I have never had to disguise mushy peas, but I would love to try them. I love eating whole peas but no harm in trying this too!
