To ask about PEAS

[MicCheck]

I'm trying to think of snacks.... I need low fat and preferably low calorie as I'm a tubby bear and I could do with laying off the pies.

I need it to be gluten free and, as I said, low fat (dodgy gallbladder)

INSPIRATION has hit me! Has anyone tried to air fry peas?!

AIBU in thinking I have just created the best, most healthy, stuff your face snack ever?

I haven't actually tested my imaginary recipe... because it's late. Far too late for pea consumption. But I'm guessing they'll taste great.

@user1473878824 I have never had drag peas! Am I missing out?! Are they really better than frozen?

Fresh peas, not drag 😂
Totally picturing singing peas wearing false eyelashes and lipstick...

Oh they’re so lovely. Totally different to cooked.

plenty of recipes for air fried peas online.
and sugar snaps.google is ur friend

@kateandme I did google. And not a one air fried pea recipe did I find. So it's mine. MINE.

Not the sort of snack you are looking for but pea purée is mighty delicious. Eat with a spoon or pretend it's a dip.

Slight variation on the theme - courgette, pa and mint soup, lovely filling snack or light meal and uses up my courgette glut too!

yes take your peas out and leave them a while.they are great uncooked.
my sister literally just immerses them in the water to take the thaw off.straight out and loves snacking on them

@MountainDweller Pea purée! 😍 I'm drooling!

@kateandme I've always cooked my peas the old fashioned way (boiled or steamed)
Do you mean your sister eats them raw after defrosting?
So many possibilities...

@kateandme

You have shamed me.

I'm still claiming the paprika flavour as my own though

Even though a PP has clearly found some for sale.

I shall bow out now 😢

Wasabi peas are disgusting. Fresh raw peas (from pea pods), however, are nice.

OP try Penn State pretzels for a low fat 'crisp' snack. They're oven baked so a good option. The sour cream and chive flavour are delicious 😋.

Also have a dodgy gallbladder so I feel your pain!

Celeriac chips are lovely. Only done them in the oven though. Love roasted chickpeas as well.

yep yep raw after defrosting.amazing!

I love peas I often have a bowl for dinner but with salad cream instead of ketchup.

Wasabi peas are my favourite even though they make my eyes water.

nothing better than a medley of roasted carrots,swet potato,peppers,courgettes and red onion and garlic.

A little cornflour on carrot friends makes them epically amazing. I wonder if they would too work on peas. Your could mix your paprika in with it and you'll get bubbly, crunchy goodness 🤔

Chickpeas! Delicious roasted with cumin, turmeric and chilli - imagine they would air fry just as well....

yes peas with salad cream.or vinegar Binforky add some lovely cooked carrots to that bowl and youve hit perfection.that why i love those frozen carrots and pea veg medley bags you can get.

ooo why the cornflour GloriaMaximus

Slices of cucumber! The only food which takes more calories to chew than you actually consume, I believe.

@GloriaMaximus GLORIA! What an incredible idea!! I'm guessing it would create a type of batter?!
Sounds amazing!
Not sure it would be especially low calorie but I am most definitely trying it 😋

HELCH.

Don't know why my last post appeared twice 🤔

@thefirsttimer pretzels sound great but unfortunately those ones aren't gluten free 😢 flipping pain in the ass this gluten free shite is

@Shouldcolder ARE TOU HEAVING ON MY THREAD?
MY DELICIOUS PEA THREAD?!
