recipes straight to your inbox. Goat Cheese & Pea Toasts
Whipped goat cheese & pea toasts on my mind for this weeks snacks and lunch. It serves as a really good pantry/freezer recipe if you have some bread lying around and frozen peas – it comes together in no time. You can sub what’s needed if you don’t have everything down below either. This is such a great vibrant and green, spring-time recipe! Yum!
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh or frozen peas snap peas work too
- 1/2 cup Tessemae’s Lemon Pepper
- 2 garlic clove
- juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons goat cheese and more for serving Salt to taste
- 1/4 th cup parsley

Instructions
- To begin, blanch your peas by boiling water and adding in your peas for about 15 minutes until tender. Remove and rinse under cool water.

I just wanted to double check – it says to blanch the peas for 15 minutes? I’ve only heard of blanching something for a minute or two, so just wanted to be sure! Can’t wait to try the recipe! Thank you!
You’re blanching but also cooking the peas a little bit so they are not super hard (if you’re using fresh peas!) so blanching and boiling. If you are not using fresh peas, then just a 2-3 min blanch will do. I hope this helps!
