Black-Eyed Peas with Ham image

Here's a regional favorite I grew to love after moving to the South. You'll never want black-eyed peas from a can again! Serve the dish as a side with grilled chicken...or make it your main course and round out the meal with greens and corn bread. -Tammie Merrill, Wake Forest, NC

I'm not a big fan of black-eyed peas, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The ham and collard greens really make it.

I love the addition of the collard greens to this recipe. It gives the peas a nice bitter flavor that balances out the sweetness of the ham.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe without the ham. It was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables, like carrots and celery, to make it a more hearty meal.

These black-eyed peas are so comforting and delicious. I love to make them on a cold winter day. The ham hock makes the broth so rich and flavorful.

I've been making this recipe for years, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The black-eyed peas are creamy and flavorful, and the ham adds a nice salty touch. I like to serve it with cornbread and collard greens.

These black-eyed peas with ham were a hit at our New Year's Day dinner! The ham hock gave the peas so much flavor, and the addition of the collard greens and bell pepper made it a hearty and delicious meal. I will definitely be making this again.
