BLACK-EYED PEA'S BAKED SQUASH image

This recipe was printed in the Houston Chronicle. I used to go to Black-Eyed Pea Rest.At dinner you are allowed 2 side dishes, this is so wonderful I would always order 2 sides of this! When I go to a party now I often wonder whether I'm invited because I make this, or is it my company? For all of you whom make this, Enjoy! & if you think it's alot freeze part of it for a later date.
