Hi Reader, It's a tradition in the American south to eat black eyed peas for luck in the new year. And while I live in California, I fully embrace this delicious tradition.

The black eyed peas are simmered in garlic, cilantro and onions, with chopped greens and a squeeze of lemon. Happy New Year! Love and Veggies, Amy |
