1

Cook pea pods as directed on package, with carrot.
2

While pea pods and carrot are cooking, heat remaining ingredients to boiling in 1-quart saucepan, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.

Drain vegetables. Pour sauce over vegetables; toss.

Snap pea pods are sweeter than snow peas and have more rounded and fully developed peas inside. You'll find them fresh in your supermarket during the spring and fall. At other times, use the convenient frozen ones. They save you extra time since you don't have to string them.
