Green Pea Chiffon [Trying To Eat More Legumes]

Green Pea Chiffon

I am trying to include more legumes in our daily diet, and feed my boys with more vegetable without them knowing it. If you have any simple baking recipes with legume, do share with me. 


I used canned green peas for this cake its texture was great - soft and moist, but taste wise was a bit bland. For my next green peas chiffon, I will definitely use green pea powder or ground green pea made with roasted/toasted peas.
