Ingredients
-
Onions, raw, 1 medium diced
Red Sweet Peppers, 1 medium diced
Black-eyed peas 1.5 Cup cooked or 1 can drained
Carrots, 1 carrot diced
Garlic, 2 cloves, minced or pressed
Tomato Sauce, 1 cup (8 oz can)
Cumin seed, 2 tsp powdered
Coriander seed, 2 tsp powdered
Tabasco Sauce, Salt and Pepper to taste
Cornstarch 1 T.
Water 2 T
Golden Raisins .5 cup
Green Olives .25 cup
Directions
Combine onion, pepper, carrots,garlic and peas in slow cooker. Pour tomato sauce over top and season. Cook on low for 6-7 hours or until vegetables are tender.
Dissolve cornstarch in water and add to crockpot along with raisins and olives. Stir and cook on high for 15-20 minutes longer. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Serve in pita breads, in a wrap, or over rice.
Notes: It is traditional to have almonds in picadillo but my son can't have them so I left them out. Feel free to add .25 cup slivered almonds if you wish (but will add calories).
Many picadillo recipies also put in an apple (a tart one like Granny Smith is good) and you could certainly try that as well.
The carrot is not traditional here but I like to add as many veggies to my dishes as possible so I threw one in.
