dip them in garlic juice? idk that's how i got mine onto pellets it might work for peas too, or throw some peas in with the prawns they might eat them thinking it's a chunk of prawn

well if you just like get some frozen peas and thaw them the thawed peas are rather soft so they should be able to bite into them

Is there a reason you want to try peas?

Do they normally eat them in the wild or is there something in peas that would be good for them... Just curious :D
 
peas can help if your piranha has constipation, don't really need to feed them that if there's nothing wrong.
if you really want to feed them pea then just stuff it in bit size shrimp and they should swallow it. they may throw it back out or poop the undigested part out, you just need to get them out of the water before they mess up your parameter.
