SWEET AND SPICY SOUP WITH BLACK-EYED PEAS AND SWEET POTATO
Contrasting the flavors of sweet (roasted red bell pepper and sweet potato), spicy (cayenne and crushed red pepper) and earthy (black eye peas) was the inspiration for this dish. Equally tasty whether served hot or cold.

BLACK-EYED PEAS AND SWEET POTATO STEW
Just a recipe I made up one cold day when I wanted a hearty, homemade stew (comfort food!) It was really good, so I shared it with a few friends. One friend called it: "Keisha's Mom's Black-Eyed Peas and Sweet Potato Stew" - adding my daughter's name. Sounds impressive! (This friend has made it more often than I have!) I like it because of the interesting taste and texture of the whole, fresh ingredients...it's great to have in the fall.

Tips:
- Prep in advance: To save time, chop the vegetables and measure out the spices before you start cooking.
- Use a good vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so use a high-quality vegetable broth or make your own.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Add the spices gradually: Start with a small amount of each spice and add more to taste. It's easier to add more spice than it is to take it away.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for this soup include chopped cilantro, green onions, avocado, and sour cream.
