Ingredients

1 pound dried black-eyed peas
1 small onion, diced
1 red, orange or yellow bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup chopped Canadian bacon
2 garlic cloves
6 cups water
1 chicken or beef bouillon cube
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 bay leaf

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients in your slow cooker.
Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 5-6 hours, until the beans are tender.

Notes

The beauty of this recipe is that the beans do not need to be pre-soaked!
Make It Vegetarian: Leave out the Canadian bacon and substitute vegetable broth for the water and bouillon cube.
Use Broth Instead of Bouillon: Replace the water and bouillon cube with chicken or beef broth for an even richer flavor.
Adjust the Consistency: For a soupier dish, cook with 7 cups of water (or broth). For a thicker, stew-like consistency, use 5 cups.
Try Turkey Bacon: Swap the Canadian bacon for turkey bacon for a lighter option.
Pressure Cooker: Make this recipe in your pressure cooker if you prefer. Add the ingredients and pressure cook for 45-50 minutes. Release the steam and enjoy!
