Robbie's Black Eyed Peas
One of the nurses where my mother is staying brought this as part of her lunch one day when I was there. I commented that it looked quite good and how much I enjoy black eyed peas, so she gave me a little taste and it was absolutely delicious. Robbie gave me the recipe, it could not be any easier. Feel free to increase the amounts depending on the amount of servings that you need.
Black Eyed Pea Salad
1 -14 to 16 oz can of black-eyed peas
1 rib celery, chopped
1 tbsp. finely chopped onion
1 tbsp. salad oil
1 tbsp. vinegar

I grew up eating black eyed peas, usually boiled with ham hawks and served over warm corn bread. I am going to have to give this a try.
I got some Crowder peas from Rochester's Public Market last week (and more this morning). I made a salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, basil, and balsamic vinaigrette. I bet they would be good in this recipe as well!
This would be good over some rice! Or quinoa! or something grainy!
That does sound good, Nikki
That would be great with this recipe Julie!
I have had them with ham hocks that is delicious.
I've eaten black eyed peas, but I have never cooked them myself. I'll have to give this a try!
The canned ones are already done for you Carla...then just make them into whatever you choose like this salad which you will absolutely love.
i've never had black eyed peas but this looks such a simple and delicious meal.
It is Jo, enjoy
