Peas, frozen, raw

Frozen raw peas are vegetables, including garden peas and petit pois, that have been frozen without cooking. They provide carbohydrate, fibre and protein, as well as vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they contain 11g of carbohydrate, 5.3g of fibre, 5.3g of protein and 22µg of vitamin C.

Fibre supports normal bowel function, while protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods and supports normal immune function. These peas contain little fat or salt, although adding butter or salt during preparation will change this. The figures describe peas before cooking; full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
