Made this on New Year's Day and it was a big hit. I fried up some bacon and then sauteed medium chunks of the vegies in a little of the bacon grease. Used ham instead of the sausages, a can of rotel and Emeril's Essence (found here on the site) for the cajun spices. Definately a keeper and one I will use again. Thank you for posting. Made for Turning Over a New Leaf...Diabetic Forum 2011.

Made this today in the crockpot while I was out cleaning leaves...I let it cook for a full 10 hours. It smells SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! I did cut down on the spices just a bit since I have at least 1 kid that will be eating it....Maybe next time I'll add a few potatoes??? It needs something....but I am LOVING IT!!! Thanks for a great recipe! I'm always looking for new things to try!

Amazing soup! I have had black eyed peas in the cabinet for a long time and wanted to use them. I used Italian spicy sausage because that is what I had in the freezer. I did not plan ahead so I did not soak the beans over night. Instead I boiled the beans for 2 minutes, removed them from heat and let soak in the water for 1 hr, they were ready to go after that and worked just great!
