I have about 50 lbs of purple hull peas in my freezer. I love the standard peas and sausage over cornbread. It is a staple in my house this time of the year.

But I can't eat that every week.

Is there anything else that I can do with these?

You can use them to make a Texas Caviar dip.

I made a purple hull pea hummus this summer that was pretty damn good. Just your basic recipe except purple hulls instead of chick peas. Also purple hull pea soup with ground burger (or deer) is pretty tasty.

Yes, make hoppin' john. Here's Emeril's recipe, but practically everyone has their own variation: LINK
You can also venture into Indian recipes for peas (called lobia)...lots of deliciousness there.

Texas caviar, perfect for football season dips.

Pea fritters, called akara in Ghana and Brazil: https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Bean-Fritters-with-Hot-Sauce-103385

Eat them as a side with eggs for breakfast. Put salsa or some kind of chili sauce on them.
