I'm allergic to black-eyed peas, but I'm sure this salad would be delicious with other beans, such as chickpeas or lentils.

I love the pop of color that the red onion adds to this salad. It's also a nice contrast to the black-eyed peas.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more herbs or spices.

This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time.
