The tacos look amazing! I love black eyed peas and will often make a pot and have them for lunch throughout the week. I pour a big ladleful over brown rice and pour on the Pickapeppa sauce. The heat and tanginess of the Pickapeppa are a great compliment to the black-eyed peas!

After reading this post the other week, I proceeded on a Sunday afternoon to make a batch of black eyed peas and polenta. I was making different lunch combinations all week with salads and eggs and stir-fried greens. Perfect!

I grew up with Hoppin John, and now that I live in the UK it has become a tradition with my extended family too. But this year I made a richly aromatic West African Groundnut stew (on my blog, kelliesfoodtoglow), subbing the usual chicken for black eye peas, and it was amazing. I now have loads of extra black eye peas in the freezer and the polenta and taco recipes really appeal. Thanks for highlighting this rather Cinderella ingredient

Another salad: black eyed peas, tossed with a handful of snipped fresh dill, crumbled feta, olive oil and balsamic vinegar, cracked pepper and a pinch of salt. Let sit for an hour or so and serve. It's even better the next day!

I did grow up on black-eyed peas; it was new year's eve good-luck ritual along with pigs feet and chitterlings! (Sounds gross, I know.) Black-eyed peas are simply delicious even plain and the recipes above look great. The one with the toast and leeks is calling my name.

I'm still eyeing that toast -- think it may need to make an appearance this week.

Wow, all of these ideas are great! I especially love the looks of that kale salad.
