BLACK-EYED PEA SAUSAGE STEW



Black-Eyed Pea Sausage Stew image

I always wanted to try black-eyed peas. I happened to have smoked sausage on hand one night, so I invented this full-flavored stew. It's the perfect way to heat up a cold night without spending a lot of time in the kitchen. I usually double the seasonings because we like our food spicier. -Laura Wimbrow, Bridgeville, Delaware

  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to the stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, onion, and potatoes.

  • Season the stew to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You may also want to add a bit of hot sauce for a kick.
  • Serve the stew with a side of cornbread or biscuits: This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
