Creamy Pea Spread is a quick and easy recipe that makes for a delicious, healthy appetizer that's delicious served with baguette slices and radishes! I love using this pea spread to top toasted baguette slices and then add some thinly sliced radishes for a festive little bite. The flavor of the peas is sweet and delicate - easy to overpower if you I found myself slathering it on whatever crackers, toasted bread, or baguette was in the kitchen at the Taste, and adjust for seasoning - add more salt if needed. Spread it on whatever you've got around. This spread is great to keep in the fridge and add a little something to toast after your workout 🙂.
