BLACK-EYED PEAS WITH SAUSAGE AND TOMATOES
This is based on a favorite recipe from a friend, but modified to be lower in fat: (1) uses Italian turkey sausage instead of regular Italian sausage; (2) halved the amount of sausage used in the original recipe; (3) cooked sausage in water instead of frying in oil as per the original recipe; (4) replaced cheddar with 2% milk sharp cheddar cheese. Even with these modifications, this dish packs plenty of flavor -- I don't miss a thing from the original recipe.

Steps:
- Cook sausage in a little water in a large skillet over low-to-medium heat. Break up sausage with a spoon; continue cooking and stirring until sausage is no longer pink. Drain any remaining water (if needed).
- Add onion to sausage in skillet. Continue cooking over low-to-medium heat until onion is tender; about 5 minutes.
- Open cans of diced tomatoes and black-eyed peas. Drain canned tomatoes and one can of black-eyed peas, but do not drain the second can of peas.

- Salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over skillet mixture.
- Serve with hot pepper sauce on the side, so each person may spice up his/her individual serving.

BLACK-EYED PEA SAUSAGE STEW
I always wanted to try black-eyed peas. I happened to have smoked sausage on hand one night, so I invented this full-flavored stew. It's the perfect way to heat up a cold night without spending a lot of time in the kitchen. I usually double the seasonings because we like our food spicier. -Laura Wimbrow, Bridgeville, Delaware
