GREEN PEAS-A LA FRANCAISE
I first tasted this delicious pea recipe at my cousins home in Canada,a couple years ago. She wrote out the recipe from her Canadian Cookbook. I happily tweaked it so I could cook them quicker in the micro-wave,instead of the hot oven. This is not your usual recipe for peas. I am sure your family and guests will compliment you! This recipe is so good, you might want to double the recipe. Being a French a recipe. Can't you just imagine Julia Child saying.... "BON APETITE" Nancy... 7/3/13

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a 10 cup, micro-wave bowl, for 1 minute. Add minced onions. Cover and simmer without browning onions until they are soft and transparent. Reserve the outer green whole lettuce leaves. Then chop the head of lettuce and place on top of the onions.
- Add the chopped or shredded lettuce, parsley and on top of the onions. Blend well. Shell the fresh green peas and place peas on top of the lettuce mixture.
- Sprinkle with sugar and cover with the reserved lettuce leaves. Cover and cook, 6 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes, before serving. Serve with chopped fresh parsley, and lemon wedges. BON APPETITE!!!
