Loved the black eyed pea dip! Thanks & Happy New Year!

By Amy Caulkins on January 01, 2012

I doubled the batch due to the amount of people coming to our party. I found this dip to be pretty bland. I added quite a bit more of the vinegar, salt and pepper. It's okay but does not really have a memorable taste. It also took me almost an hour to chop up and combine all the ingredients.

I always thought blackeyed peas tasted like chalk. I would eat a spoonful at New years dinner but only because I was told it was bad luck for the next year if you did not eat some. BUT this recipe changed my mind. I love it so much that I could just eat it with a spoon or over roasted chicken breasts. I am a true Texan now because I love BLACKEYED PEAS.

Love this recipe. Great for a summertime picnic. Just a suggestion try serving it with Fritos Scoops!

We are from Texas and fixed this for our Friend here in Canada and shared the tradition of Black-eyed peas for good luck in the New Year. Many wanted the recipe. I told them Paula Deen. Thanks for being a part of our New Year's celebration. Denise
