Ingredients

    Dressing:
    1/2 cup balsamic vinegar*
    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 teaspoons sea salt
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    2 teaspoons dried cane juice or 1 1/2 teaspoons honey

    4 cups blackeyed peas, cooked without salt, drained (1/2# or 1 cup dried, soaked overnight, cooked in 6 cups fresh water)
    1 cup red pepper, small dice (about 1 1/2 large)
    3 green onions (scallions), sliced
    1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
    1/4 cup chopped onion (red is pretty, but any will do)

Tips

Note 1: I used a mix of cherry balsamic and serrano balsamic vinegars and reduced sugar by 1/2 TB.
Note 2: 1/2 to 1 whole seeded jalapeno, finely diced, makes a nice addition.
Note 3: I started with dried peas, soaked overnight and cooked them. If you used canned (2 x 15 oz), please drain and rinse well, or reduce added salt.


Directions

Mix dressing items in a small bowl or jar. Mix/shake and set aside.

Chop pepper(s), onions, parsley. Add to large (2 qt bowl and mix. Add drained blackeyed peas. Add dressing and toss gently. Cover and chill before serving.
