Black-eyed Peas (Cowpeas), Canned
(Black-eyed Peas (Cowpeas), Canned)  Canned black-eyed peas are a convenient and quick way to enjoy these delicious beans; the only drawback being that most canned black-eyed peas are prepared with salt.  For this reason, we recommend draining off the liquid before adding the black-eyed peas to your recipe.  Canned black-eyed peas can be used in salads, dips, tortilla filling, and other recipes.  See the nutritional chart below.

Cowpeas, common (blackeyes, crowder, southern), mature seeds, canned, plain

Vegan FlagThe above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
