Quick Spicy Black Eyed Pea Dip Recipes

Steps:

• If using left over black-eyed peas, include any of the ham or bacon seasoning to enhance the dip.
• Measure out 4 cups and place in a sieve or strainer to drain for approximately 10 minutes.
• Removing this excess moisture from the cooked peas will guarantee a creamier dip.
• In a large sauce pan, melt butter over medium-high heat.
• Add onions, celery and garlic and sauté 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add jalapeño pepper and chopped green chilies.
• Cook 2 to 3 additional minutes and add half of the black-eyed peas.
• Simmer 2 minutes, add cheese and stir until melted.
• Pour contents into the bowl of a food processor and blend until puréed.
• Transfer to a decorative serving bowl and add remaining black-eyed peas.
• Stir well to incorporate.
• Add chopped pimento and parsley for garnish.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Serve with warm tortilla chips or crackers.

Steps:

• In an electric mixer or large mixing bowl, mix together the peas, Cheddar, jalapenos, 3 tablespoons of the reserved jalapeno juice, butter, garlic powder and onion until blended. Season with salt and pepper. Heat the dip in a medium slow cooker and serve it warm with corn chips.

Steps:

• Stir the black-eyed peas, green onions, sugar, olive oil, garlic, tomatoes, cilantro, balsamic vinegar, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Mix in jalapeno peppers, if desired. Cover, and refrigerate at least six hours before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a skillet; cook and stir the orange bell pepper, celery, carrot, onion, and garlic in the hot oil until the onion is translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker; mix in the black-eyed peas, water, and vegetable base, stirring to dissolve the vegetable base. Stir in the chipotle peppers, about 1 tablespoon of the reserved adobo sauce (or to taste), liquid smoke, cumin, and black pepper.
• Cook in the slow cooker on Low until the black-eyed peas are very tender and the flavors are blended, about 8 hours.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the bell pepper, celery, onion, black pepper, Tabasco, ketchup, salt, bullion cubes, nutmeg and cinnamon. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until mixture is boiling and bullion cubes are dissolved.
• Add peas, Rotel, garlic, and sugar and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Stir flour into warm bacon drippings (that way the flour doesn't lump) and stir flour/dripping mixture into peas.
• Cook ten minutes more. Mixture should be thick enough to use as dip. I reserve the liquid from the canned peas "just in case" but usually the thickness is just right or maybe only a little bit of liquid is needed- I wait till the end of cooking to see.
• Scoop a couple of cups of the finished peas out and set aside. Using a blender, food processor, or stick blender, blend the most of the peas to a medium-smooth dip, then return the couple of cups of whole peas back in, stir, and serve. Mashing the most of the peas makes a nice smooth dip that clings to a chip well, while leaving a small portion of them whole makes a nice presentation.
• Serve with Frito Scoop chips or corn bread.

Steps:

• Combine picante sauce, black-eyed peas, hominy, white onion, cilantro, green onion, chile peppers, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well combined. Cover and chill for 24 hours.
