About Arvejas

Arvejas, commonly known as green peas, are small, round legumes native to the Mediterranean and Near East regions. A staple in various cuisines worldwide, they are prized for their versatile flavor and nutritional value. Rich in essential nutrients like vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals such as iron and potassium, arvejas are a great addition to a balanced diet. They are an excellent plant-based protein source and high in dietary fiber, promoting digestion and supporting heart health. With their low-calorie count and antioxidant properties, arvejas contribute to reducing inflammation and boosting immunity. Whether enjoyed in soups, stews, salads, or purees, they are a delicious and health-conscious choice. However, individuals aiming to control blood sugar levels should moderate portions due to their natural starch content. Perfect for vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores alike, arvejas are a timeless nutrient-packed ingredient.
