Black-Eyed Pea/Rice Salad image

This is a salad, I got from Guy Fieri's Collection on the Cooking Network Site. I have put it together for our New Years Day Buffet, I doubled the recipe and used a half of red, yellow and orange bell peppers. I also tossed in approx 1/2 cup of chopped cilantro. Tomorrow with the leftovers I might toss in a chopped jalapeno for zip.

BLACK-EYED PEA & RICE SALAD

This always goes well at pot-luck. Every ingredient can be changed depending on what you have on hand. So easy to make too. Peas can be replaced by any bean on hand. Any grain or small pasta can replace the rice. Any combination of raw or cooked vegetables can be used. This is great for using up leftovers too.
