Beautiful and easy side dish! The red pimento's are a must for color. I reduced the butter to 1 tablespoon and the onions cooked up nicely. Also, I used a 16 ounce bag of frozen peas since I was having six hungry people for St. Patty's day. I will be making this for company again!

    Tried your recipe and really enjoyed it...so much that I'm going to double it and use it as one of the side dishes at my Christmas dinner. I added a small amount of minced garlic to it when cooking the onions and celery...loved this way of making peas look and taste so much better.

    You know, the simple dishes are probably the most flavorable. I loved this recipe because the flavors all worked together, and....it was a beautiful dish. I really liked the simplicity of the peas and pimentos and onions. Next time I make this, I will experiment (sorry Aunt Marie) with maybe, red onion, but you know....it is terrific just like it is!!

    This was an excellent side dish. I was really quite an elegant looking dish, despite the ease of preparation and the simplicity of the ingredients. This went over very well as part of our Christmas meal. It was very attractive and tasted great. Thanks!
