Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking dish

Ingredients

  • 4 slices of pickled jalapeño chopped into small and vibrant pieces, offering a zesty and tangy kick that adds a delightful heat to the dish.
  • 1/8 tablespoon of sour cream skillfully added to provide a velvety and creamy texture that elevates the richness and indulgence of the dish.
  • 1/2 14-ounce can of black-eyed peas, thoughtfully selected for their tender and creamy texture, adding a protein-rich element to the dish.
  • 1/8 onion finely chopped into delicate pieces, offering a subtle and sweet flavor that enhances the overall taste profile of the dish.
  • Hot sauce to taste, meticulously added to provide a customizable level of heat, allowing you to adjust the spiciness according to your preference, adding an extra kick of flavor.
  • 1.5 tablespoons of salsa thoughtfully selected to add a burst of fresh and tangy flavors, complementing the creaminess of the dish and enhancing its overall zestiness.
  • Salt and black pepper to taste, skillfully used to season the dish and balance the flavors, ensuring a well-seasoned and satisfying taste.
  • 1/2 cup of grated sharp cheddar cheese carefully chosen for its bold and tangy flavor, melting beautifully to create a rich and cheesy sauce that coats the black-eyed peas.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  • In a medium bowl, delicately fold together black-eyed peas, diced onion, creamy sour cream, mild jalapenos, sharp cheddar cheese and salsa until the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Evenly spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish and season generously with hot sauce, salt and pepper.
  • Place in the preheated oven for a delectable 25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  • Serve warm, accompanied by your favorite chips or crackers.

Notes

-You can also add other vegetables like bell peppers or corn for an extra burst of flavor and color.
-If you'd like your black-eyed peas to be spicy, feel free to add more hot sauce or jalapenos.
-If you don’t have jalapenos, feel free to substitute with canned green chilies for a milder flavor.
-You can also bake this dish in individual ramekins or baking dishes instead of a 9x13 pan if desired.
