Hoppin' John Inspiration

I started looking for recipes for black eyed peas and noticed several recipes for Hoppin' John. I made this recipe after reading several recipes based off a traditional Hoppin' John recipe.

NOTE: The recipe is QUICK to make if the rice and black eyed peas are prepared ahead of time.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups black eyed peas
• 2 cups of cooked rice
• 1 cup low sodium vegetable broth 
• 1 red bell pepper diced
• 6 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 cup diced onion
• 1/2 tbsp chipotle pepper + 1/2 tbsp chili powder or 1 tbsp cajun seasoning
• just enough olive oil so nothing sticks to the pan

 

 

Instructions:

Sautee the onion, garlic, and  bell pepper
Add spices, broth, peas, and rice to the pan
Stir and cook until liquid is absorbed
