What it is
This product is a frozen vegetable side dish. It features tender green peas combined with a savory garlic and parmesan cheese seasoning. The peas are typically blanched before being frozen, which helps to preserve their texture and color. The seasoning is added to create a ready-to-heat meal component that offers a classic flavor profile.

To prepare, you can typically heat this dish in a skillet on the stovetop or in a microwave.
