Peas are the WIC-approved food of the month!

Peas are packed with health benefits, and they’re a highly versatile kitchen staple that can be eaten raw, steamed, boiled, roasted, or pan-fried.

Peas are packed with antioxidants that help build your immune system. They also contain carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which can protect your eyes from chronic diseases! Peas are also a great source of protein and fiber, helping your body break down carbohydrates and manage your blood sugar!

This month, try incorporating peas in your family's diet. You can even experiment with different methods of cooking them. Let us know your favorite way!
