this looks delicious...I was just thinking this morning, I should have gotten my act together and made black eyed peas for dinner, I love the idea of it on New Year's...do you always make it??? I hope your New Year is all of these things and MUCH more...mmwwahh!!
dawn ~ it's so easy & yummy! make it tomorrow night, maybe.
we love black-eyed peas & collard greens, so i usually make it for new years {and other times}.
winco has black eyed peas in bulk. i sauteed a sweet vidalia onion/garlic/celery/carrot. i used "better than bouillon" and 2 bunches of chopped collard greens. also made buttermilk cornbread. ♥
I think I will do this tomorrow..never too late..right?? how much better than bullion do I use?? last time i used WAY too much and it was not good..and how much water? or do you use stock??
i'm so bad about measuring... i sauteed the veggies, then added the black-eyed peas, then added boiling water, then added the bouillon paste. yes, you do have to be careful not to add too much. i think roughly one teaspoon to 8 oz of water, but no more. add a little & then taste the broth. ♥
I love this dish but we can no longer eat this in my sodium free home. :( I must tell you that in the south we cook all of this on a ham bone and use no buillon.
This looks good, Catie! I made mine yesterday on the ham bone left from the Christmas ham that someone gave us for a gift...a 28lb. spiral sliced Smithfield ham! It was delish and made such delicious collards and blackeyed peas. May this bring us all a year full of good luck! xooxxo Gretchen
No black eyed peas here...Is it ok that we had lentil soup instead?? :) Happy New Year Catiegirl...as my children say in their prayers at night..."keep you happy,healthy, safe and warm"..in the coming years. I"m glad we're friends. xoxo

Catie,
ReplyDeleteThese are the best looking black eyed peas I have ever seen! Too bad for me, my husband is not a fan : (
