I had one bite of a sweet black eyed pea salsa at a party months ago. I didn't get enough of a look at it to even know what was in in besides black beans, black eyed peas and that it was sweet. This was the closest recipe on the internet that I could find, so I made it. <br/><br/>I made two changes to this recipe: I used one fresh jalapeno instead of canned, and I halved the dressing. One cup of olive oil sounded like a lot, and I really didn't want to waste it by draining it off before serving it. With half of the dressing, there was still plenty of moisture and plenty of flavor, but no wasting in the end, because I didn't drain it at all. <br/><br/>Everyone loved it and it will become a regular on our New Year menu. Thanks for a great recipe!

I live in upstate New York. It gets very cold here which I believe has lead to my love for comfort food. I am a runner and this summer became a triathlete. I started cooking about two years ago and haven't stopped. I love it.
