Black Eyed Peas

, and I have to have my black eye peas for luck. Southern thing, my mother has done it forever.

No one here likes them but me. I like them in all forms, but fresh is my preference.

Fresh blackeyed peas are completely different from frozen or canned. Usually, I would make a pot of hoppin john, but the way I like it isn’t exactly low fat, so I skipped that.

So, this is what I did.

I got a can of
1 can of
1 onion
Salt,pepper,garlic

Mixed the whole thing together after draining all the juice off of everything.
Tasted it.
Added a splash or 2 of balsamic vinegar.

It ain’t bad. If you’re not into spicy, you might want to choose mild Rotel tomatoes, or even a mild salsa.
