Mushy Peas

Makes about 4-6 side dishes
2 cups frozen peas
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp cream cheese or sour cream
Salt and pepper

In a pot fitted with a steamer basket, steam the peas until they are heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the peas to a mixing bowl and add the butter and cream cheese (or sour cream). Season with salt and pepper.
With a potato masher, or with a sturdy fork, mash the peas so they are chunky, but begin to resemble mashed potatoes. Switch to a spoon and stir until everything is well combined. (You can add 1 tbsp of water if it is too thick). Enjoy!

*Paying homage to our trip to London! Mushy peas are a common side-dish served with fish & chips. It sounds gross, but it is actually very good. The texture is like mashed potatoes, but the flavor is of peas. You could even spread this over some toasty pieces of bread like a crostini. This is another super-easy side-dish that is a far cry from your traditional Thanksgiving feast!

I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone. 1 Timothy 2:1
