I’m in the camp that canned peas don’t need to be dressed up to taste good. They taste perfectly fine to me just the way they are. However, on special holidays it’s always fun to add a little flair to the meal. If you are looking for some easy Easter side dishes you’ll love these ideas for how to dress up canned green peas.

How to Dress Up Canned Green Peas

It’s so simple to add a little pizzazz to your canned green peas. Drain the peas, pour in a microwave save bowl and microwave for 1-2 minutes. Add these delicious mix ins and stir well.

Another classic spin is butter, salt, and pepper. Add 1/2 of a teaspoon of salt and 1/2 of a teaspoon of pepper with a pat of butter (1/2 tbsp).

Sriracha Peas

If you like your green peas spicy, you’ll love these sriracha peas. Add 1-2 teaspoons of sriracha or gochuchang, depending on how spicy you like them.

Sweet and Spicy Peas

Like it spicy, but also want it a little sweet? A little honey and cajun seasoning dress up canned green peas very well. Add 1/2 tbsp. of honey and 1 teaspoon of cajun seasoning.

Ranch Peas

This is a really fun one! You can keep it super simple by adding 1/4 C. of ranch seasoning. Dress up the canned green peas even more with 2 slices of crumbled bacon, 1/4 C. of diced red onion, and 1/4 C. of shredded cheddar.

Butter & Thyme Peas

Get fancy with butter & thyme peas. All you need to do is follow the recipe for sugar and butter peas, then add in 1/4 teaspoon of dried thyme.
