Black-Eyed Pea Salad with Peppers


  • Author: Maya Singh
  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

Six side portions of bean-and-bell-pepper vinaigrette salad.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 30 ounces Canned cooked black-eyed peas
  • 1 pepper Red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 pepper Yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup Red onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup Flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine salt

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse two 15-oz cans of cooked black-eyed peas. Dice one red and one yellow bell pepper, measure 1/4 cup finely diced red onion and chop 1/4 cup parsley.
  2. Whisk 3 tbsp olive oil with 2 tbsp cider vinegar, 1 tsp Dijon and 1/2 tsp salt. Toss peas, peppers, onion and parsley with the dressing in a large bowl.
  3. Cover and refrigerate about 30 minutes so flavors combine. Taste and document any needed salt or acid adjustment rather than changing the measured card silently.
  4. Divide into six provisional side portions and serve chilled with clean utensils. Test drained bean weight, dressing distribution and texture after holding.
