COLD BLACK-EYED PEAS AND CORN
My husband raves about this! Easy to eat as a salad, but it's yummy with tortilla chips or Fritos®! It's easy to double or triple, and it's really simple to add more ingredients if you have them, like jalapenos. On its own, it's delicious!

GERMAN POTATOES WITH PEAS, CARROTS, AND CORN
Kartoffelgemüse mit Erbsen, Mohrrüben und Mais in German. Potatoes accompany many German meals. You'll often find a side of carrots and peas in a creamy sauce on your plate as well. It makes a very tasty combination together with potatoes. So it 's not surprising that someone thought of a recipe that combines both of these sides in one dish. Not only is it tasty but it is also easy to make and you'll only end up with only one dirty pan. As a little bonus, you'll also find some corn added to this dish. I've changed the dish to use vegetable broth instead of water to give more flavor but it's good with the water too.
