I am from the South and it is a tradition to eat black-eyed peas on New Years Day. This was a creative way that my cousin and I came up with! The folklore says that the eating of black-eyed peas brings prosperity to you throughout the new year! Enjoy! And be prosperous! Serve warm with tortilla chips.
Ingredients:
1 cup white rice
2 cups water
2 (15.5 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
Directions:
1. Bring a small pot of rice and water to a boil. Cover pot, reduce heat to simmer and let cook 20 minutes or until rice is tender.
2. In a large saucepan, combine rice, peas, tomatoes and chili. Stir the mixture over a medium heat until it is heated through.
