    We love blackeye peas and I add them to soups a lot, but never thought of making them the base of the soup. I didn't have tomatoes with chile's so I use Italian with onions an basil and a little salsa to add the kick.
    Will make it again. - 5/8/09

    I cut out the chili peppers (my stomach) and added bell peppers and it was very good. - 5/8/09

    I agree with the others who commented on adding onions. Adding garlic and onions will make this a five star recipe - 5/8/09

    I substituted part of the rice with barley and quinoi for more protein and fiber. This was pretty good, but I added fresh minced garlic and cumin for flavor. I also added Bragg's for more flavor and nutrition, but it still seemed like it was missing something. - 5/27/09

    I think I'm going to try this tomorrow with my left over peas that I'm having tonight, and I think I'll add the garlic and onion to it! I but garlic and onion in just about everything anyways! Thanks for sharing - 1/27/11

    I am not rating this because I have not tried it... but the reason I did not try is because rice is not on program. If this is salsa, then why is rice being used? What alternatives are there for those of us who choose to eat a healthier version of this meal? - 1/3/10

    I very nearly added some canned tomatoes and chilis to my version of Hoppin' John yesterday . . . but was a little worried I wouldn't like the result. After reading the reviews here, I'll definitely try this combination in the future. - 1/2/10

    I think I might like this but I'm going to use dry beans instead of canned. I agree with other comments about the addition of onions and garlic. I'm not going to cook the rice with the peas. I'm going to cook a bag of Success instant brown rice and serve them together. Thanks for sharing! - 5/8/09

  • DMSGLASS
    This recipe sounds good, I like the idea of adding chopped onion to it. The brown rice I have takes more like 50 minutes to cook, rather than 20. - 11/5/08
