My mom has had this recipe FOREVER and the whole family loves it. Sometimes it's the only way my 2 yr old will eat veggies!

Ingredients

  • 3 (16 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed

  • 1 cup jalapeno pepper, chopped (TIP-buy the pre-chopped ones in the can )
  • 1 teaspoon cumin

  2. 2
    Serve with Frito scoops or bite size nacho chips.

A quick and versatile recipe. It easily halves and accomodates personal preferences well. Jalapenos and cumin enhance everything--if you like them too, you'll enjoy this. An added bonus--low in carbs and adds fiber. I skip the chips part, but as Momma says, a good way to get those veggies down kids.
