Spicy Black-Eyed Peas
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 (16-ounce) package dried black-eyed peas, washed

- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cups water
Preparation
In a large saucepan, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon, crumble, and set aside to use as a topping for the peas. Saute the onion in the bacon drippings until tender.

Add additional water, if necessary. Serve garnished with crumbled bacon.
