Herb Lemon Butter Peas and Little Potatoes Recipe

Disclosure: I was compensated for this post. All opinions and experiences are my own.

The Little Potato Company has some new and enticing products that I’m excited to share with you today. They have made serving Little potatoes as easy as anything. This recipe for Herb Lemon Butter Peas and Little Potatoes can be on your table in a matter of minutes. This is thanks to their fantastic Microwave Ready Kits.

They have three different flavors to choose from: Savory Herb, Garlic Parsley and Tomato Basil. For today’s recipe I used the Savory Herb. They are microwaved for only 5 minutes and then just need 2-4 minutes to rest and finish cooking.

To have a fresh healthy side dish on the table in a matter of minutes is hard to beat!! This is convenience cooking at its best.

See how luscious looking these are with only simple ingredients added. This recipe has few ingredients as the fresh Creamer potatoes come with their own seasoning pack. If you just want the potatoes with just the seasoning then mix that on in after cooking and you are ready to go!!

If you prefer to add in some butter or olive oil you can add that too! For my recipe I mixed the seasoning pack with melted butter, lemon zest and lemon juice. It made a gorgeous springtime sauce for peas and Creamer potatoes.

So delightful and bursting with flavor and it all took a matter of minutes to prepare and pull together. That is what I loved the most.

What are Little Potatoes?

Little potatoes or Creamer potatoes are the smallest of the potato family. Just think of a cherry tomato in the tomato family. They are fully grown, mature potatoes and are not to be confused with new potatoes.

Their skin doesn’t need to be peeled off as they are delicious and tender. They are also consistently sized which makes for even cooking.

The perfect forkful with so many entrees. The side dish will carry you year-round but is wonderful to wake up the taste buds for spring with its lemony notes.

I love potatoes anytime, I love peas anytime so putting them together was a no brainer for me. Wonderful freshness and the savory herb seasoning just brings them all to life.
