  • ENJOY!
  • NOTE: Is well worth the time to make and freezes WELL!
  • NOTE: Remove Bay leaves before serving.
  • NOTE: If canned tomatoes do not contain seasoning such as dry Italian seasoning, would suggest you add about 1 tbsp dry Italian seasoning, but is personal preference.
  • NOTE: I serve in tortilla wrap with rocket, feta and Golden Door Recipe - Chilli Sauce.

Tips:

  • Soak the black-eyed peas overnight: This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the peas more digestible.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and nutrients to the dish. Some good options include onions, celery, carrots, and bell peppers.
  • Season the black-eyed peas well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
  • Cook the black-eyed peas until they are tender: This will usually take about 1-2 hours. You can check the peas by tasting them or by inserting a fork into them. The peas should be soft and easy to chew.
  • Serve the black-eyed peas with your favorite sides: Some good options include cornbread, rice, or collard greens.
