Number Of Ingredients 11

1 can(s) backeye peas
1/2 c green pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp rosemary
1 pkg mahatma yellow rice
1/2 lb sausage
1/4 c onion, chopped
16 oz can stewed tomatoes
1/4 tsp oregano
tabasco to taste

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 2. Prepare rice according to package directions. Spoon rice into bowls and top with blackeye pea mixture. Mix and eat.
  • 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.
  • 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.
