Check out what my pal from me Lady Cooks had to say about this wonderful recipe:
One of my favorite childhood meals was creamed peas on toast. I can’t say that we ate it often, but when we did I was in heaven. My siblings, however, hated peas. The meal was their worst nightmare, and they may have sat at the table for hours, refusing to eat it. That’s probably why we didn’t eat it often. One of my sisters and one of my brothers (I have two of each) to this day won’t eat peas. I’d eat peas in any way, shape or form!
I love making recipes from my childhood. it brings back so many fond memories. What is a dish you used to eat as a child?
Ingredients

Thank you Me Lady Cooks for this great recipe.
My Mom, Who is now parilized on her left side and lives in a nursing how since 2010, and myself loved to make creamed peas on toasted shrimp sandwiches. Havn’t had that in years and can’t have it now as I live with my oldest son who is very allergic to shell fish. Memories
have had it shrimp, small ones
We’ve always added tuna fish to it
us too—was our Christmas Eve staple. Might just have to add it to my list for Lent..
Same here! And a small jar of diced pimientos (drained). We loved it as kids, and our grandkids STILL love it!! Such a quick and tasty meal. Creamed Tuna on Toast!

I have made it for years except I have always added Salmon. I got this recipe from my husband’s Mother. It sure has an unusual name. She called it Salmon Pea Wiggle. Lol
