    So nice to see a reminder of such a nice basic dish for all of us here I Added garlic salt instead of regular salt and really you could use whatever you wanted with this. I Also used my margarine for health's sake but arguably butter would certainly be the best Thanks for posting this for everyone!

    I halved this recipe for two of us, but I think if I would have made the entire recipe it would have been eaten. Very easy to make and so tasty! I used margarine instead of butter (watching those calories) but otherwise, no changes.

    This is a nice and different way to do carrots and peas. I certainly wouldn't want to be using this recipe all the time but I definitely will make it again. I think I will add some basil next time. Just a very nice change!
