Whether you’re blending broccoli into a pasta sauce or cramming fruit smoothies full of kale, making sure kids get the recommended amounts of green vegetables is a full time job.

Enter the frozen pea. Yep, not only are frozen peas packed with phytonutrients, antioxidants, fibre and protein, they also taste remarkably sweet cold and have a chewable texture straight from the freezer.
Pop a handful in a bowl the next time your little ones fancy a snack and watch, incredulously, as they come back for more.
