Black-Eyed Peas with Ham image

Here's a regional favorite I grew to love after moving to the South. You'll never want black-eyed peas from a can again! Serve the dish as a side with grilled chicken...or make it your main course and round out the meal with greens and corn bread. -Tammie Merrill, Wake Forest, NC
