"Not traditional by any means; however, they are a great side dish for a weeknight meal. If you have cooked your own black eyed peas; by all means, use them. I use canned beans to make it easy. This recipe makes a side dish for 2-3 people, which can easily be doubled. Perfect to serve with Fried Catfish!!"

Base ... Add the bacon to a non stick saute pan on medium heat. Slowly cook the bacon until it starts to render it's fat and starts to crisp up.

Step 2
Bring to a light boil; then, reduce to a simmer, medium low to low heat. Cook for 10-15 minutes; as the tomatoes will start to break down and release their juice. Cook until the peas and sauce naturally thicken. If you like a little more
