Hoppin' John in the Summertime image

A hearty Low Country stew adapts itself to a southern summer salad. I got this from my Low Country mother-in-law, who tweaked an idea from her mother's hoppin' john soup one year when it was just too hot.

This recipe was a disaster! The black-eyed peas were undercooked and the vegetables were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

I found this recipe to be bland and unflavorful. I would recommend adding more spices and herbs to taste.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper or omitting it altogether.

I've made this recipe several times and I've always had great results. The Hoppin' John is always flavorful and the vegetables are tender and cooked perfectly.

I'm a vegetarian and I love this recipe. I omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It's still delicious!

This recipe is a great way to use up summer vegetables. I used fresh tomatoes, corn, and okra from my garden. The dish was delicious and I'm sure it will be a hit at my next potluck.

I'm not a huge fan of black-eyed peas, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The vegetables and spices balanced out the flavor of the peas perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again!
