Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: > 5 hrs

  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 2 yellow summer squash, thinly sliced crosswise
  • 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seed, crushed
  • 1 can (16 ounce size) black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon snipped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 medium tomatoes, cut into thin wedges

In a medium skillet heat oil; cook squash, peppers, garlic, and cumin, uncovered, for 8 minutes or until squash is tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; let cool.

Combine squash mixture with peas, green onion, cilantro, and salt. Cover and chill 4 to 24 hours. Toss tomato wedges with chilled pea and squash mixture before serving.

Cook's Notes: Because hot peppers contain oils that can burn eyes, lips, and sensitive skin, wear plastic gloves while preparing them and be sure to wash hands thoroughly afterward.
