Don't worry you'll be used, frozen peas

As an ice pack

When the peas are thawed, and the pain abated, mix them with little cubes of cheddar, thinly sliced green or red onion, mayo, and optional bacon for a Midwestern salad.

Toss a handful into your next pot of Mac and cheese.

This is the way. Mac and cheese accepts most additions.

peas were given to us by god almighty to just toss into any meal so that no one can have an excuse for not eating some kind of green vegetable.

Peas essentially are the pizza rolls of vegetables. That's why I like them and potatoes.

literally like half of my diet is just frying some diced potatoes, onions, meat, and (undiced) frozen peas with some spices.

It's called "pyttipanna" and is basically the nordic equivalent of fried rice, traditionally made from leftovers and these days i can just buy frozen packets of it (minus the peas) for extremely cheap.

I think of it as human kibble: i'm pretty sure it has every nutrient you need in a pretty decent balance, it's cheap and trivial to prepare, and it's so tasty that i can basically eat it every single day (though some variety is still nice, throw in some pickled beets and a fried egg every now and then at least)

Those peas would not survive the night with me smh
