Company Peas
Company Peas is a vintage recipe that has graced many dinner tables over several generations. I’m not really a big fan of peas, but I like this dish. The creamy mushroom sauce is so tasty! I find it masks whatever it is I don’t like about peas.
Plus, it’s easy peasy to make. See what I did there?! Anyways, it’s a quick side dish to whip in 35 minutes. Serve this recipe with beef, chicken or whatever other protein you are making for dinner. It’s versatile and goes with practically anything!
Peas can be a bit boring and I find the ingredients help to liven it up. I love all the different flavors and textures that work so well together.
Ingredients
You’ll need to gather these ingredients to make the recipe.
- Butter
- Frozen peas – you’ll need to cook them first. If you wanted to use canned peas, they might be a bit mushier than their frozen counterparts.
- Bean sprouts
- Mushrooms – I like fresh mushrooms, but canned would also work.
- Can of Cream of Mushroom soup – You don’t need to add anything (like water or milk). Just use the soup itself directly from the can.
- Slivered almonds – Toast the nuts them first! I use the stovetop method because it’s quick.
- Salt and pepper
How to Make
- Start by preheating the oven to 350F. Grease a 2 quart casserole dish.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add mushrooms and bean sprouts and cook for about 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are browned.
- Combine the cooked peas with the Cream of Mushroom soup. Stir in the mushrooms and bean sprouts. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture into the casserole dish.
- Bake for 20 minutes, uncovered.
- Top with toasted slivered almonds and serve hot.
