To get the kids to try black-eyed peas on New Year's Day, we told them this was a bowl of luck. I don't think they believed us, but they did like the salad. Ingredients:
4 cups black-eyed peas, cooked, drained |
1 cup frozen corn, thawed |
1 large carrot, shredded |
4 green onions, sliced |
1 red bell pepper, chopped |
1/2 cup olive oil |
1/3 cup red wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cumin, ground |
2 tomatoes, diced |
Directions:
1. Combine the vegetables-except the tomatoes- in a large bowl and set aside. 2. Combine the oil, wine and seasonings, stirring till sugar and salt are dissolved. 3. Pour the dressing over the salad, mix well, and refrigerate for a couple of hours. 4. Just before serving, add the tomatoes and stir everything together again. |
