BLACK-EYED PEAS

FOR GOOD LUCK

It's a New Year's tradition

for good luck.

Soak a pound bag of dried

black-eyed peas overnight.

Drain and add several thick slices

of country bacon or ham,

one chopped onion, a stalk

of celery, salt, pepper and

crushed red pepper flakes.

Plus 2 cups of chicken stock.

Simmer for 1-2 hours,

add a sprig of fresh herbs

and serve while you

toast the New Year!
