BLACK-EYED PEAS WITH SAUSAGE AND TOMATOES



Black-Eyed Peas With Sausage and Tomatoes image

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.

BLACK-EYED PEA SAUSAGE STEW



Black-Eyed Pea Sausage Stew image

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
