BLACK-EYED PEAS WITH VEGETABLES AND SMALL PASTA
The range of bean and vegetable main dishes in the Greek repertory is striking; every region has its specialties. Many of the traditional dishes are called "olive oil dishes" (or ladera), because they are cooked with copious amounts of extra virgin olive oil. I tone down the amounts in my kitchen. But I still use enough to ensure that the broth accompanying vegetables or beans is alchemized to a velvety sauce, often enhanced with a splash of fresh lemon juice or vinegar just before serving. Since black-eyed peas require no soaking, you can cook this after work so long as you have some vegetables around the house. It is an utterly simple dish that I've adapted from a recipe in Ms. Kochilas's cookbook.

Steps:
- Cover the black-eyed peas with water, bring to a boil and then drain.
- Combine the drained black-eyed peas, onion, carrots, red bell pepper, dissolved tomato paste, garlic, bay leaf, hot pepper and 1/4 cup olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Cover with water by 2 inches, and bring to a gentle boil. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low and simmer 20 minutes. Add salt to taste, and continue to simmer until the beans and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add the pasta, increase the heat to medium-high, and simmer five to 10 minutes, until the pasta is cooked and much of the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in the greens, another 2 tablespoons olive oil if desired and the vinegar. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

I have been making these Southern black-eyed peas for years and years, and they are always a big hit for family dinners! Don't skip the cumin, which is the "secret" ingredient.

BLACK EYED PEA PASTA SALAD
This recipe was the result of me sifting through the leftovers I had and wanting some pasta salad. I love black-eyed peas, but whenever I make them we always have leftovers because I get tired of eating them plain. This is a great way to use up those leftovers, and a few other random ingredients you may have lying around. I'll give tips for some substitutions, but definitely make this your own using what you like. I'll post my vegetarian black eyed pea recipe separately.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water up to a rapid boil.
- Drain off black-eyed peas, or if frozen submerse for a few minutes in boiling water until cooked through, with the aid of a strainer.
- Lightly cook carrots for a few minutes in boiling water using a strainer to submerse and remove from water.
- Lightly boil mushrooms the same way or cook them lightly in olive oil in a pan.
- Add pasta to water and cook approximately 7 minutes. I usually undercook the pasta slightly so the pasta doesn't get too mushy after absorbing liquid in the salad, or if you want to eat the pasta hot later.
- Mix together garlic, cilantro, green onions, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if you like. Onion and garlic powder and parsley are also great additions.
- Combine sauce with vegetables, black eyed peas and salmon flaked into small pieces and again taste and adjust seasoning.
- Remove pasta and strain.
- Mix pasta into vegetable mixture and give a final taste and adjust if needed.
- Sprinkle cheese if using on top and heat in oven or microwave if desired.
- This dish is also excellent cold, though I prefer it warm with some cheese melted on top.
