Lunch: Black-Eyed Peas

A flavorful but easy pea side dish. Great for good luck on New Year's!

Ingredients

4 slices bacon
1 medium onion
1 (16) oz package dried black-eyed peas, washed
1 (12 oz) can diced tomatoes and green chilies
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
6 cups water
1/3 lb hog jowl, thinly sliced
3 teaspoons Paula Deen's House Seasoning
3 tablespoons butter

Instructions

In a large saucepan, add bacon, cook until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon, crumble, and set aside to use as a topping for the peas.
Add onion and sauté in the bacon drippings until tender. Add the peas, diced tomatoes and green chilies, 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.
