Dried Peas
If you have a picky eater in your household who won't eat peas, try serving dried peas. The small green legumes take on a crunchy, enjoyable texture when dried. Their subtle sweet flavor is enhanced as a result of the drying process. Our dried peas can be flavored to your liking and served as a quick nutritious snack.
Most people in the U.S. could benefit from including more fiber in their diet. Fiber serves multiple important functions. From feeding healthy gut bacteria to protecting against constipation and irritable bowel syndrome, fiber supports GI health. The soluble fiber in peas takes on a gel-like consistency and binds to bile. As the bile, which contains cholesterol, is eliminated from the body, cholesterol also passes out.
Peas are an excellent energy source for those who have insulin-related metabolic conditions. Diabetics benefit from consuming dried peas as the fiber content curbs insulin spikes. People who are insulin-resistant or hypoglycemic may also benefit from adding our pea snacks to their diet.
Green peas are also heart-healthy. With a high potassium content, our pea snacks lower blood pressure. They also discourage the formation of plaques in the blood vessels.
