Roasted Peas with Garlic & Feta

Peas are one of my favorite side dishes.  I make them all the time, but usually I just heat them up with a little butter and a pinch of Kosher salt.  But these pan roasted peas might just be my new favorite way to serve them.  Adding a little garlic while cooking and topping with some creamy feta as they come off the heat made the perfect side dish for a busy school night.

I thought life would settle down as the kids got older, but I think things have gotten crazier. Our weeknights are so busy that I don’t even have a moment to think.  As soon as I pick my kids up from school, it’s go time!  Tutoring, Church, Homework…lots and lots of homework. Every day is different, but every day is crazy. Needless to say, I’ve had some issues getting a decent supper on the table.

   

Easy Weeknight Dinner Solutions

I meet my husband once a month or so for lunch and we usually end up strolling the aisles of the Whole Foods by his work. We found Barber Foods Signature Recipe stuffed chicken breasts and I just knew they would make the perfect easy and convenient weeknight dinner solution for my busy family.

The stuffed chicken breasts come in a bunch of flavors, but my family really enjoys the Cordon Bleu, Broccoli Cheddar, Kiev, and Crème Brie. They are so easy, convenient, and require no prep work.  Just bake and eat!

While my chicken breasts cooked, I whipped up this easy side dish with frozen peas, garlic, and some feta I had hanging out in my fridge.  Such an easy meal for nights that I just don’t have time to devote to cooking supper.

The Barber Foods Signature Recipe stuffed chicken breasts cooked up beautifully and the portion size was perfect for my growing teen and starving husband.  Adding in a quick home cooked side dish to these delicious chicken breasts made me feel good about feeding my family.  It took less time to cook up this supper then it would have taken to grab takeout.

You have to give these roasted peas a try!  It’s a supper the whole family will love. Y’all also have to check out this roasted radish & pea side dish for another delicious recipe that would go great with these stuffed chicken breasts.
