Peas grow in a long and slightly curved
green pod which is attached to a tall plant
above the ground

When we take the peas from the pod we
call this ‘shelling' the peas

Peas contain Vitamin A and C and B1

A is good for our eyesight, C is good for
skin, teeth and bones and B1 for a healthy
nervous system

3 heaped tablespoons of peas =
one 5-a-day portion
