Lucky Pea Soup

By: CHEFSTEFANIE 
"This delicious black-eyed pea soup is a favorite of ours especially when the weather is chilly. It's a great way to start the year with a kicked-up, spicy serving of black-eyed peas! Top with shredded cheese, parsley, green onions, and crumbled bacon to add even more flavor. "

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 4 slices bacon
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, undrained
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons cumin
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

Directions

  1. Place the bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until crisp and evenly brown. Drain on paper towels. When cool, crumble into small pieces.
  2. Using the same skillet, add the peppers and onion; stir and cook over medium-high heat until transparent and tender, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour the black beans, tomatoes, and water into a large pot. Stir in the peppers, onion, salt, cumin, dry mustard, chili powder, curry powder, pepper, and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot sprinkled with bacon, and other toppings of your choice.
