| Marinated Black-Eyed Peas
2 cups of cooked black-eyed peas 1 medium Red bell pepper, cut into 1" strips 2 minced scallions 3 tablespoons of minced fresh parsley 3 tablespoons of olive oil Juice of 1 lemon 1 Garlic clove, crushed Salt & pepper Dark green lettuce leaves |
| Combine all the ingredients except the lettuce in a mixing bowl. Cover & let stand in the fridge for an hour or so. Stir occasionally. Before serving, remove garlic. Line a shallow serving bowl with lettuce leaves & top with the pea mixture. This recipe is better if prepared a day ahead. For real good luck, drop some coins into it before serving.
