Now that Christmas Day is over, let’s think a little about New Years. Have you heard it’s good luck to eat black eyed peas on New Years Day? Is it a Southern myth? A superstition? Well, I eat them and have found a new favorite way to prepare them. Black Eyed Peas Made Easy In The Crock Pot is the way.

I’m one who doesn’t really believe in superstitions, but I happen to love black eyed peas. It’s a good excuse for some comfort food after all of the traditional holiday fare we have been enjoying.

Do you love them at any time of the year or just eat a spoonful for good luck?  Do you consider them a side dish or main dish?  My normal meal with black eyed peas is to add cole slaw and cornbread.  How do you like them?

If you have plans to be more organized and have better time management in the New Year, I’m going to be focusing a lot on crock pot recipes to help with this.

Here’s a few to try.

    I am excited to try your recipe. I eat black eyed peas on New Years Day as a tradition. But it also fun to think of them as a good luck charm, too 🙂
    I hope you have a wonderful new year, my friend.

      Thanks Meegan. Growing up in the South, different peas and beans were a main entree many times for dinner.

Thanks for stopping by as we talk all things home and travel. I was doing “DIY” before it was the thing to do. I was born in a big city and lived on farms growing up in small towns. Now I live in what some would consider a moderately big city. I still enjoy the common things associated with a home, mainly cooking and decorating, but always make time for travel. Maybe it’s finding something fun in my hometown, or exploring new places on a road trip or cruise. Please pull up a chair, have a cup of coffee, and let’s talk about it. Read more
