Skinny Hoppin' John

Recipe By :The New American Plate
Serving Size : 4 

1 cup dried black-eyed peas
1 can seedless diced tomatoes, drained -- (about 14-oz.)
2 scallions -- white and green

Rinse the peas and place them in a deep saucepan with 2 1/2 cups cold water.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the peas are almost soft, 45 to 60 minutes.

Serve over rice. (Hoppin’ John may also be served without rice, as a side dish.)
