It's a Southern tradition to eat black-eyed peas for good luck on January 1. Coming from the North, I find this bean rather bland, so I liven it with spiced tomatoes, pour it on rice and sprinkle it with shredded cheese. Then to add further interest, I used the Holgaart effect in BeFunky. You'd never think you were eating such simple fare.
Looks yummy but I think I stick with my smoked salmon or marinated herring with potaoe salad..a quick and easy meal when one is in a hurry to get ready for partying..
