Peas and Pearl Onions

My Thanksgiving meal isn't complete without this side dish. A medium white sauce coats these simple vegetables. Maybe even your kids will try them!

A bag of frozen petite peas
A bag of frozen pearl onions

Prepare the vegetables according to package directions and keep hot.

Medium White Sauce:

2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1 Cup milk

Melt butter over low heat in a heavy saucepan. Blend in flour and seasonings. Cook over low heat, stirring until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Remove from heat. Stir in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil 1 minute.
Fold into hot, cooked vegetables and serve.
