Ingredients:

  • 4 Slices bacon
  • 1 medium size green bell pepper
  • 1 Medium onion, chopped
  • 2 15.8 ounces cans black-eyed peas, drained, like Hunts
  • 1 14 1/2 ounce can Cajun style stewed tomatoes undrained and chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Black Eyed Peas have a lot of goodies in them. They have high levels of fiber, protein, vitamin A and folic acid.

Steps:

  1. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp.
  2. Remove bacon, reserving drippings in the skillet.
  3. Crumble bacon.
  4. In the bacon drippings, cook the green bell pepper and the onions over medium high heat, stirring always, until tender.
  5. Add black-eyed peas, stewed tomatoes, the salt and pepper.
  6. Cook over low heat until heated thoroughly, constantly stirring.
  7. Sprinkle with bacon.

This is great for anytime. Serve them on New Years for good luck, as the tradition goes. If you don't want any Cajun in this, just use regular stewed tomatoes.
