Recipe by:

"I created this salad version of Hoppin John by combining a number of ingredients from other Hoppin John recipes and adding cilantro, tomatillos, and lemon juice for a zesty flavor. The salad is just as good without red pepper for those with discerning palates. Also as an alternative, a favorite hot sauce can be substituted for the red pepper with each individual serving. I like to add a dash of Louisiana-style cayenne pepper sauce to mine."

Enjoyed this salad a lot. Scaled it here to 3 servings to use only 1 can of black-eyed peas, and I ended up with enough salad to easily make 4 servings. Didn't have a tomatillo, added salt and b...

Terrific!!! I had to sub in for the black-eyed peas but I wanted to try it& had everything else. So I used 1/3 of each: Lima beans, white beans& chick peas. Makes a large salad!
