1 stalk celery, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped

3 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 (16 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, drained
Directions:
1. I use a Dutch Oven for this dish.
2. Heat oil over medium heat and saute onions, garlic, celery, carrots, bell pepper and meat for a few minutes.
3. Add chicken broth, hot sauce, thyme, salt and pepper. Simmer for 30 minute.
4. Add drained black eyed peas and simmer just a few minutes more.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking.
6. Serve over cornbread or rice.
