(For Friday Favorites we spotlight past recipes that you may have missed, this Slow Cooker Sausage and Black-Eyed Pea Stew with Beet Greens is a perfect way to start the New Year!)
I love sausage, beans, and greens, so it’s not surprising this recipe for Slow Cooker Sausage and Black-Eyed Pea Stew with Beet Greens from On Top of Spaghetti would catch my eye. But I was especially intrigued because this recipe includes two ingredients I haven’t ever used in the slow cooker! Black-eyed peas (called black-eyed beans in Greece where this blogger is located) are one of my favorites, and I love how they’re combined with beet greens, (although you can probably use another type of greens as well.) This looks like a perfect dish to eat some and freeze some; hope you give it a try!
Ingredients for this recipe:
- Dried black-eyed peas (also called black-eyed beans)
- water or vegetable stock
- beef sausage
- beet greens
- celery
- yellow pepper
- carrot
- tomato paste
- dried herbs
- black pepper
- sweet paprika
- Parmesan rind
- salt
- optional grated Parmesan for serving

March 4, 2014 at 9:36 amThank you Kalyn for sharing my recipe! Here in Greece people don't soak black-eyed beans/peas, as they wouldn't lentils. They need a much shorter cooking time than other beans so I though why not just throw them in there?! Hope you like it!
