Do you still eat this traditional New Years Day meal?

I love ‘em! Served with ham and a side of corn bread! ??

Got some black eyed peas on the stove now.

No cabbage. Can't stand the smell.

I stopped when I realized they don’t bring wealth only farts.

Having Hoppin John "sausage, rice and black eyed peas" tonight


Ingredients
1/2 cup brown rice, instant uncooked (or white rice)
1 teaspoon canola oil (or corn oil)
3 ounces low-fat smoked sausage ring, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch pieces (lowest fat and sodium available)
1/2 red bell pepper (medium, chopped)
1 jalapeño pepper, medium (seeded and finely chopped)
1 can black eyed peas (no salt added, rinsed and drained)
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
Directions
Prepare the rice using the package directions, omitting the salt and butter/margarine.
Meanwhile, in a medium non-stick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the sausage for 3 minutes or until richly browned, stirring frequently.
Stir in the bell pepper and jalapeño pepper. Cook for 1 minute.
Stir in the peas, water, and salt. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the mixture is thickened slightly but some liquid remains. Remove from the heat.
Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes so the flavors bend. Stir in the rice. Transfer to a serving bowl.

New Year's Day is my dad's birthday. We always have his favorite meal which is steak, baked potatoes, salad, shrimp cocktail, and German chocolate cake with ice cream.

I cook the cabbage down with chicken, trinity, and rotel. Much better that way.

Jimbeaux, that is exactly what we eat, and it never disappoints.

I made this for my cabbage and pork dish today. It was delicious and didn't stink up the kitchen at all.

Hell yes! To all you baws diving into a big bowl of peas, hope you have a bottle of homemade pepper juice to dash on them.

That sounds solid, but I do like cabbage cooked by itself, or seasoned with ham/corned beef.

Just cabbage cooked down with water, a pinch of salt and then seasoned with a dash of cayenne and 3 dashes of black pepper. Simple. Delicious.
