Does anyone have a good and different way to cook black-eyed peas...?
I usually make them with onions, garlic, bell pepper, salt, pepper, etc...anyone have another way to cook them?

During the hot summer months, I like to fix this black-eyed pea salad. Served with cornbread and ice tea, it's a meal in itself, or it makes a great potluck side dish.
