Spicy Black-Eyed Peas
Recipe Summary
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Yield: 8 servings
4 slices bacon
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (16-ounce) package dried black-eyed peas, washed
1 (12-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups water
In a large saucepan, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon, crumble, and set aside to use as a topping for the peas. Saute the onion in the bacon drippings until tender. Add the peas, diced tomatoes and green chiles, salt, chili powder, pepper and water. Cover and cook over medium heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the peas are tender. Add additional water, if necessary. Serve garnished with crumbled bacon.

In celebration of the Black Eyed Peas concert tonight, I thought I would input a recipe featuring the infamous bean that gave name to one of my favorite music groups. According to Jessica Harris, the author of "Welcome Table" a African-American Heritage Cooking book, a dish of peas is thought to bring luck and prosperity for the new year. She also notes that some add a dime to the peas for an extra "boost" of luck to the recipient. Just some extra info for everyone. Enjoy!
