Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. If using left over black-eyed peas, include any of the ham or bacon seasoning to enhance the dip.
  2. Measure out 4 cups and place in a sieve or strainer to drain for approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Removing this excess moisture from the cooked peas will guarantee a creamier dip.
  4. In a large sauce pan, melt butter over medium-high heat.
  5. Add onions, celery and garlic and sauté 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Add jalapeño pepper and chopped green chilies.
  7. Cook 2 to 3 additional minutes and add half of the black-eyed peas.
  8. Simmer 2 minutes, add cheese and stir until melted.
  9. Pour contents into the bowl of a food processor and blend until puréed.
  10. Transfer to a decorative serving bowl and add remaining black-eyed peas.
  11. Stir well to incorporate.
  12. Add chopped pimento and parsley for garnish.
  13. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  14. Serve with warm tortilla chips or crackers.
