Instructions

  1. In soup pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Add onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add garlic, celery and carrots and cook for another 5 minutes until vegetables start to get soft.
  2. Add vegetable broth, black eyed peas, diced tomatoes and spices (salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper) and cook on medium to low heat for about 30 minutes until vegetables are soft.
  3. Add kale leaves and cook for another 10 minutes or until greens are soft and cooked.
  4. Serve warm with bread or cornbread. Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for about 5 days. You can also freeze leftovers to use later.

Recipe Notes

  • *Dry black-eyed pea option: Not into canned beans? Cook your own at home! Soak black eyed peas overnight or for around 6 to 8 hours. Drain water and rinse beans. Transfer beans to pot, add enough water to cover the peas and cook for about 40 mins to 1 hour, until beans are soft.
