Snap Peas, sauteed

This is so easy I feel almost guilty posting the recipe, but hey -- maybe you don't know how delicious and simple this is.

Snap peas are inexpensive at Costco and the 2 lb. bag will last at least a week, which is more than enough time for my husband to eat them.

Here's what you do:

EVOO
couple handfuls snap peas
1 T. butter (yeah yeah, not 100% paleo, but it needs it okay?)
salt/pepper to taste

Heat a pan super duper scary hot, add EVOO (however much you want) and add your snap peas.  Throw the butter in there and toss.

Let the peas be for a minute or 2 to develop yummy yummy caramelization.  They take about 10 minutes total -- you're gonna want to let them get some brownness on them because that's what makes them taste. so. good.

Once you're satisfied with the level of brownness (seriously, don't be scared of it -- it's going to be DELICIOUS), turn off the burner and serve.

Easy/Delicious/Fast

My favorite combination.
