This combination of kale, onions, and black eyed peas is surprisingly addictive!

• ½ pound kale, washed, stems removed, and chopped
• 30 ounces black eyed peas
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 ½ tablespoons broth or canola oil
• 1-2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• salt to taste (if using dried beans, otherwise not needed)

In a large pan, sauté onions in broth or canola oil on medium heat until caramelized. Add black eyed peas and mix together in the pan. Lower the heat to medium low and add chopped kale to the pan and cover, about ten minutes, or until the kale is cooked to your liking (if you don’t have a pan large enough to accommodate this much, steam the kale in a separate steamer basket while the onions and black eyed peas simmer and place them in a mixing bowl when the kale is steamed). Pour the olive oil over the beans and kale and mix well.
