Ingredients

  • 1 can backeye peas
  • 1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 package mahatma yellow rice

  • 1/4 cup onion, chopped
  • 16 ounces can stewed tomatoes
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano

How To Make blackeye pea supper dish

  • Step 1
    Cook sausage in a large frying pan, crumbling as it cooks. Drain fat from pan. Add green pepper and onion. Cook 5 minutes, stirring vegetables into sausage. Add garlic & cook 1 minute. Add tomatoes and seasonings. Stir Well. Pour blackeye peas with liquid into pan. Cover & simmer while rice cooks.
  • Step 2
    Prepare rice according to package directions. Spoon rice into bowls and top with blackeye pea mixture. Mix and eat.
  • Step 3
    Pepper, rosemary & oregano may be replaced by Cajun seasoning. Personally, I like to fix the blackeye pea mixture at least a day ahead and reheat while the rice is cooking.
  • Step 4
    The blackeye pea mixture is also good served without the rice and topped with cheese, served with a side of cornbread. If you don't like blackeye peas, try great northern or navy beans.
