Additional Info: When tasked with putting a fun and modern twist on a tried-and-true classic 4th of July recipe I knew I would incorporate yummy, Japanese flavors (my husband is half Japanese and was born in Japan!) to enhance this already delicious dish! With just a few easy tweaks, and a can of Libby’s Sweet Peas this recipe is the perfect combination of creamy, and crunchy with a spiced twist you are sure to love!
