Going out to eat NY Eve but I'll be cooking on NY day since we're hosting a Rose Bowl party but not sure what to make yet. Probably trying something new since I'll have some beer drinking guinea pigs around.

Black-eye peas over steamed white rice and cabbage. I use this cabbage recipe: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Southern-Frie...age/Detail.aspx I tried it without the bacon once because I try to eat as little meat as possible but it's not the same. I make it as directed and it's WONDERFUL!

I made Hoppin John's yesterday for the first time and it was outstandingly delicious! We had leftover Honey Baked Ham and used that as the hock.

Here's the recipe for anyone interested:

Hoppin John

1 1/2 cups of dried black-eyed peas (I used 2 cups because the package was 16oz)

1 onion chopped (I sliced mined and sauteed it in a half stick of butter along with about 7 cloves of chopped garlic)

1 pound ham hocks (leftover Honey Baked Ham)

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (I just used one packet of crushed red pepper we get from the pizza parlor)

salt and pepper to taste

4 cups water

1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice (I steamed some Jasmine rice separately)

1 cup shredded smoked Cheddar cheese (didn't use any cheese)

Brought the beans to boil in water by themselves, then let them simmer for about 25 minutes.

Sauteed onions, garlic, crushed red pepper in a half stick of butter (Medium heat until garlic turned light brown)

Drained the beans and rinsed them in cold water, then placed the sauteed onions, garlic and pepper into the crockpot, then the ham. Added the bean and about 3 1/2 cups of water...then cooked it for about 6 hours. The flavor of the red crushed pepper came through into the black-eyed peas! So full of flavor!

Served with corn bread.

Nice! I've got it bookmarked. Allrecipes is pretty good, but you have to read through the comments to figure out whether the recipe as stated is good or not. Some of them are pretty bland.

that's kinda cool, because it's when the creativity comes in

I love messing with recipes.
