Black Eyed Peas Recipes

This is similar to Hoppin' John, a must for a Southern New Year's Day in the U.S. (brings good luck), delicious and healthful all year long. This version doesn't include ham or sausage like most traditional versions. It's vegetarian, but I usually make it with chicken broth. Traditionally the greens would be collard greens or mustard greens and served on the side, but my kids eat more greens when they are mixed in.

Rinse your beans before you cook them (always!) but these don't need to pre-soak. They usually cook in a little over an hour.

Black eyed peas simmered with carrots, celery, onion and green peppers have a wonderful homestyle flavor.

This is a slightly spicy and very yummy dish that's cooked island-style. Can be eaten alone or with another vegetable or meat. ENJOY!

This is VERY SPICY if you follow the recipe exactly. If you want to cool it down cut the spices down!

1st I don’t measure, so I’m doing my best to provide the recipe for ya (so please season to taste). If you love black-eyed peas, but don't love to eat pork and want to cut back on fat/calories without compromising flavor - this is a great quick recipe. Try adding peppers, stewed tomatoes, other spices or veggies.

If you have never had black-eyed peas from dryed you are in for a treat.
