This can be a side dish or an entree either one, and even though I do not care for black-eyed peas personally, I really like this dish. Because I didn't create the dish I can brag... It's an old country classic and this is just my interpretation of it. I'm thinking in the original they used bacon or browned breakfast sausage, but the kielbasa gives it a milder and less greasy flavor.

Category: Beans & Legumes
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

2 Tablespoons oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 minced garlic cloves
2 15-oz cans black eyed peas, with can juice
1 horseshoe link of Kielbasa, sliced thinly
1 cup uncooked rice
Scant dash ground red pepper
14 ounces chicken broth

Cook onion, celery, and garlic in oil in a large heavy skillet. When all are tender, add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about a half-hour (or until rice is tender), stirring occasionally.
