Instant Pot Black Eyed Peas
Do you believe in good luck? In the south we eat black eyed peas on New Year’s Day for good luck in the new year. The swelling of the beans as they cook symbolizes prosperity. They are traditionally served with collard greens which are symbolic for money. Unfortunately in the south they are also traditionally cooked ham for flavoring so I won’t order black eyed peas and greens when I eat out. That’s why I prefer to cook them myself at home in my Instant Pot. Vegan Instant Pot Black Eyed Peas are so quick and easy to make you will want to eat them all year long!
