Black Eyed Peas Fill You UP Weight Loss Soup This fat-free vegan recipe will leave your mouth watering, with flavor and antioxidants, with protein-rich black-eyed peas (which are loaded with folic acid) add swagger to this easy slow-cooker dish. YOU'LL NEED 1 large onion, chopped 2 medium carrots diced or sliced (However you like them) 3 celery stalks, diced 1 large pepper, cut in diced. I used red, because Green gives me “Agita” but you can use any color you want 1 sweet potato, diced or small chunks 3 cups black eyed peas (if using frozen, like I did, you can just throw them in. If using dried, use 1 cup dried peas and soak overnight in water or at least 8 hours, then drain and rinse) 1 cup crushed tomatoes 1 TBLS dried, crumbled sage 2 tsp ground cumin 1 TBLS chili powder 1 tsp of Cayenne Pepper 4 cups LOW SODIUM vegetable stock (Kitchen Basics Brand is very reasonably priced Salt to taste after it is cooked. HOW TO MAKE IT - Place all the ingredients in a crockpot, add the Vegetable Broth and mix well.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on a high setting for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours or until all the vegetables and black-eyed peas are tender.
