Slow Cooker Black Eyed Peas

Category: Recipes

1 (16 ounce) bag dried black-eyed peas
3 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 cup crumbled bacon
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes

Directions:

Rinse black eyed peas, and follow package directions for quick soak (Boil for two minutes, then let sit for one hour). Rinse again, drain and place in slow cooker.
Dissolve 3 chicken bullion cubes in a cup of hot water. (I usually put them in a coffee mug of water and microwave for about a minute and a half to dissolve.) Pour into the slow cooker. Add additional water if needed so that there is about 3/4 inch of liquid covering the peas.

Add the remaining ingredients and stir just to get them wet. Add a little salt and pepper.

Cover and cook on low for about 7 hours. Taste and add additional garlic, salt and pepper if needed according to your preference.

Serve with corn bread.
