With approximately 3.5 servings in a 10 ounce container purchased from the grocery store, there are 245 calories in the entire bag.
Dietary Fiber
According to the U.S. FDA, “dietary fiber is a nutrient to get more of.” The general guidance is that diets higher in dietary fiber can help reduce risks of cardiovascular disease. Always consult with your personal physician for individual dietary advice.
One serving (1/2 cup) of sweet peas contains 4 grams of dietary fiber. This is a substantial portion (about 16%) of the recommended daily value of fiber (based on a 2,000 calorie diet).
Calorie needs vary and if you eat more (or less) than the measured serving, the amount of fiber increases (or decreases) accordingly.

This is the simplest list of ingredients you can find. There is only one item in the list of ingredients in a bag of frozen GreenWise organic sweet peas.
In fact, you won’t be surprised to learn that the list of ingredients is not a list at all. Rather, it’s one word: Peas!
