BLACK EYED PEA SALAD
This is a filling main dish salad that is perfect to bring to work for lunch (you can pack the dressing separately). The beans have an earthy flavor that is balanced by a sweet and sour vinaigrette. The salad also has crunch from a mix of iceberg lettuce and green cabbage and more earthy crunch from red radish slivers.

BLACK EYED PEA BALSAMIC SALAD
I got this at a farmer's market in Texas. A chef from one of the local resturants was demonstrating how to use the veggies of the season. This is a hit on New Year's day, the legend being that you eat black eyed peas on New Years day to insure health, wealth and happiness. Not so sure about the wealth, but health an happiness are great. You can use either fresh or frozen peas, but not canned and can substitue finely diced ham for the bacon. Good eating.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, ripe black-eyed peas. If you can't find fresh black-eyed peas, you can use frozen or canned black-eyed peas, but they may not be as flavorful.
- To make the turmeric vinaigrette, use a good-quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, but you can also use a lighter olive oil if you prefer.
- If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs instead. Just use about half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
- This salad is best served fresh, but it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Black-eyed pea salad with turmeric vinaigrette is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful salad, give this black-eyed pea salad a try.
