Before getting on with this review I would like to say that I'm pleased to be the first one to rate this.:) This recipe was made on 8/9/2011 for the " Stop & Cook " Event in the Food Photo Forum,and as part of mine and my SO's dinner.Instead of using stewed tomatoes, a can of Fire-Roasted diced was used. After adding the tomatoes,garlic powder,S & P, I tasted it and decided that it didn't need the salsa or the hot sauce.Also, instead of adding the rice to the black-eyed pea mixture, I just served it over the rice and sprinkled each serving with bacon.We both really liked the taste.This recipe certainly has a lot of possibilities, like mixing in some smoked sausage and serving it over cornbread. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "Reply
