Parmesan Peas - this is one of my family's favorite easy side dish recipes

I love peas.  They are one of my favorite vegetables.  I love how sweet they are and how versatile.  You can eat them raw, like in this Creamy Pea Salad or cooked, like in my mom’s Peas au Gratin.

You can add all kinds of flavors to them and they cook in no time.  They’re the perfect vegetable.
