"Black-eyed peas in a zesty marinade make a wonderful dip for tortilla chips or bread. Serve at room temperature." — Gabrielle

Directions

Place black-eyed peas in a large saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 90 minutes, or until black-eyed peas are tender.
Drain black-eyed peas. Cover with Italian-style salad dressing.
In a large bowl, mix together jalapeno, onion, pimento peppers, garlic, green bell pepper, and ground black pepper. Toss in black-eyed pea mixture. Chill in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight before serving.

This is a wonderful recipe, however, I used canned peas and made it just a couple of hours ahead of time. It keeps well for a few days. Also great with fritos.

This recipe in general was good, but it was INCREDIBLY too much onion. One pound of peas was so overpowered by 1 1/2 cups of onion that it was all you could taste...and taste...and taste! I've made similiar recipes before and they were a big hit. This one would have been perfect with about 1/3 of the onion.

This is a great recipe but trust me on this.... add 1 or 2 tablespoons of sugar. Makes all the difference.

Good dip. I made it with canned black-eyed peas, and cut back a little on the onion (used red and yellow onion). I think a little fresh cilantro would be a great addition too. Thanks, Gabrielle!
