Hearty Black-Eyed Pea Soup image

Alice Jarrell of Dexter, Missouri waited a long time to get this favorite recipe-but it was well worth it. "I had eaten this soup countless times at a small restaurant in our town," she tells. "When the owner finally retired, he said I deserved the secret recipe and passed it along. Now, my family enjoys it at least once a month!"-Alice Jarrell, Dexter, Missouri

This soup is a great way to use up leftover black-eyed peas. I always make a big pot of black-eyed peas on New Year's Day, and I use the leftovers to make soup the next day.

I'm allergic to pork, so I used a smoked turkey leg instead of a ham hock. The soup turned out just as good!

This soup is delicious! I love the smoky flavor of the ham hock. I also added a few chopped carrots and celery to the soup, and it turned out great.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out mushy. The black-eyed peas were overcooked and the vegetables were too soft.

This soup is too spicy for me.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out bland and watery. I don't know what I did wrong.

This soup is amazing! I love the combination of flavors and textures. The black-eyed peas are cooked perfectly, and the vegetables are tender and flavorful. I will definitely be making this soup again and again.

This is one of my go-to recipes for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's always a hit with my family, and the leftovers are even better the next day. I like to add a little bit of cayenne pepper to give it a bit of a kick.
