Great Black Eyed Peas

This recipe comes to you from the cookbook "Taste and See: American Orthodox Cooking"

This is one of two Lenten recipe books that I own.  It is one that I go to for quick and super easy meals when in a pinch.  Most of the time I have the things in my pantry so I do not have to stress over making dinner at the 11th hour.

Great Black-Eyed Peas

black-eyed peas (I used 2 cans, rinsed and drained)
chopped tomatoes, 1 can
onion, I used 1/2 chopped

Put black-eyed peas, tomato, and onion into sauce pan and simmer.  I simmered mine for about 20 minutes.  I also added garlic powder, pepper, and a little salt.

In the meantime, I cooked some basmati rice so I could serve the peas over something.

I was not sure how this was going to taste but it came out really yummy, serve a salad on the side and dinner is served.

Oh and it tastes better the next day :-)
