Ingredients

  • 8 ounces frozen shelled peas cooked and drained
  • 4 ounces Montamore cheese
  • 1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 Tablespoons fat-free Greek yogurt
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Crusty bread like a French baguette sliced

Instructions

  1. Bring a small saucepan of salted water to the boil.
  2. Add the peas and boil vigorously for 2 minutes. Remove to a colander and drain.
  3. Mash the peas lightly with a masher.
  4. Do not overdo because you want some of the peas to retain their texture.
  5. Add the cheese, yogurt and parsley to the peas and mix well.
  6. Check for seasoning and add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Spread a heaping spoonful of the pea mixture on the crusty bread.
