Description

Ingredients

• 1 (15.8 ounce) can (about 1 ¾ cups) black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained

• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (add more for a spicier dish, or omit for a mild dish)
• ½ cup finely-diced onion
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 4 teaspoons minced garlic
• 3 cups cooked rice (I used brown rice, but white rice works fine too!)
• Garnish with fresh parsley; minced bell pepper

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1 ½ - 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
• Add all of the ingredients to the prepared dish and stir until completely combined.
