An easy tasty one pot dinner. Makes a delicious and inexpensive dinner in a hurry.Vegetarian version. Substitute meat alternative(I have used the Morning Star Farms and the Ready Ground Beef Crumbles with great success, or just leave out altogether and use as a side dish) Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef (or vegetarian meat alternative, see note above) |
3 medium onions, chopped |
1 green bell pepper, chopped |
2 (16 ounce) cans spicy black-eyed peas, drained (i prefer the ranch style brand, but use trappey's if i can't get them) |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained and coarsely chopped |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook ground beef, onion and bell pepper until beef is brown and vegetables are tender.
2. Drain off excess fat.
3. Add drained black-eyed peas, tomatoes and their liquid, salt and pepper.
4. Mix well.
5. Bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. I serve with corn muffins and cold spiced peaches for an easy one dish supper.
8. NOTE- If you don't have the spicy black-eyed peas, you could add chopped jalapenos to suit your taste along with plain black-eyed peas.
9. This dish freezes well.
