A quick way to add some interest to peas and carrots. I add a good sprinkle of Molly McButter to the finished dish. It tastes better and doesn't add extra fat.
Ingredients:
3/4 lb carrot, thinly sliced
1/2 lb green peas, thawed
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
1 ounce fat free cream cheese, room temperature, cut up
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
Directions:
1. Place carrots in a steamer basket over boiling water.
2. Cover saucepan and steam 4 minutes.
3. Add peas and steam 3-4 minutes or until peas are tender.
4. Drain and return vegetables to saucepan.
5. Add remaining ingredients and toss.
