Our crunchy Roasted Parmesan Peas are a great healthy toddler snack and super easy to prepare. A bag of frozen peas are always great to have to hand when you run out of fresh vegetables. Green peas are a very good source of vitamin K, manganese, dietary fiber, vitamin B1, copper and vitamin C. The taste of frozen peas is very similar to fresh peas and there is very little nutrient loss in the freezing process. Keep in mind that peas are a choking risk until 3 years old or until your child has the ability to chew them.
