Best Low Fat Creole Style Black Eyed Peas Recipes
CREOLE BLACK-EYED PEAS AND RICE
An easy spicy dish. Adjust the spices to your needs - less Creole Seasoning if you like it mild, add chili powder or cayenne pepper for more kick! This is also good with salsa on top. You can substitute 1/2 pound dried black-eyed peas, cooked for the canned black-eyed peas if you wish.

Steps:
- Crumble the ground beef into a deep skillet or large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and green pepper. Cook and stir until beef is evenly browned. Drain the grease.
- Add the rice and water to the pan, and season with Creole seasoning, pepper, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes, until the water is absorbed. About halfway through cooking the rice, stir in the black-eyed peas.

CREOLE BLACK EYED PEAS
Not vegan, but vegetarian. From a blog called "Low Fat Vegan Kitchen" by Susan V. Jackson. Vegetable broth may be subbed for the 5 cups of water for a richer flavor. Prep time does not include overnight soaking for the peas.

- Heat the oil in a heavy pot. Add onion, pepper, and celery, sweat over low heat until softened.
- Stir in garlic, continue stirring until garlic releases it's aroma.
- Add all remaining ingredients except liquid smoke to the pot, along with enough additional water to cover the peas by one inch. Cook until peas are completely tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, adding more water as necessary. When they're tender, add the Liquid Smoke, cook for 5 more minutes, and serve over rice.

Steps:
- HEAT 2 1/2 cups water and dried black-eyed peas; once at FULL BOIL, continue boil for two minutes, REMOVE from heat, cover and let stand for 1 hour.
- Then DRAIN whatever water remains and allow peas to sit uncovered.
- In another saucepan, COMBINE 1 cup water, chicken broth, finely diced onion, finely diced celery, parsley and 2 cans (400g)/3 1/2 cups Diced Italian Tomatoes in juice, mustard, chilli pepper, ginger, black pepper and bay leaves; Bring to a BOIL.
- ADD cooked black-eyed peas.
- COVER and simmer on LOW for 1 hour and 45 minutes; STIR occasionally; If liquid is evaporating too quickly, you can add more water to make sure peas are covered with tomato/water mixture.
- ENJOY!
- NOTE: Is well worth the time to make and freezes WELL!
- NOTE: Remove Bay leaves before serving.
- NOTE: If canned tomatoes do not contain seasoning such as dry Italian seasoning, would suggest you add about 1 tbsp dry Italian seasoning, but is personal preference.
- NOTE: I serve in tortilla wrap with rocket, feta and Golden Door Recipe - Chilli Sauce.
