I've made this soup several times and it's always a winner. It's a great way to use up leftover black-eyed peas.

This soup was way too salty! I had to add a lot of water to dilute it. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I would also recommend using a smoked ham hock instead of bacon for a richer flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of black-eyed peas, but I really enjoyed this soup. The bacon and spices really brought out the flavor of the peas. I would definitely make this again.

This soup was a hit at my party! I made a double batch and it was all gone by the end of the night. Everyone loved the unique flavor and the smokiness from the bacon.

This soup was absolutely delicious! The flavors of the black-eyed peas, bacon, and spices blended perfectly, and the soup had a wonderful smoky flavor. I served it with cornbread, and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day.
