Using the "steam in bag" frozen pease makes it super fast and easy. One other slight change, and that was to use a handful of heirloom cherry tomatoes, quartered instead of a medium tomato. I loved the colors it added. The cripsy proscuitto was amazing, it was hard not to eat it all straight out of the pan. Before I would have counted frozen peas as on the lower end of my favorite vegetables list, but this recipe definitely changed that!
