Black Eyed Peas and Rice
Casserole
2 (16 oz.) cans black eyed peas
1/2 c. instant rice (or 1 c. cooked rice)
1 c. diced ham
1 (14 ounce) can tomatoes
1/4 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. chopped green pepper
Mix peas, ham, tomatoes, onion and pepper. Bring to boil. Add rice.
Cover and let rest 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir and
pour into oiled casserole. If dry add small amount of water. Bake at
350 degrees for 45 minutes. There should be enough liquid in peas
and tomatoes to cook rice. If not, add some water. Be sure to use
the S & W. tomatoes, they hold their shape. This is a good dish to
serve on New Year's day. Southerners believe black eyed peas and New
Year's day bring good luck all year.
