This is a dish I serve for new years for good luck, prosperity. Serve with a side of greens for money, and you have the new year symbols. - 12/26/13

I would cook greens - turnips, mustards, collards - rather than having both beans and peas. - 12/29/11

I don't like black-eyed peas, but this recipe is good. I enjoyed enough to take for lunch the next day. - 3/6/09
