Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup onions, diced
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
2 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen black eyed-peas, thawed
1 (16 oz) can diced tomatoes
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Instructions
1.
Combine the onions and oil in a small saute pan, with a lid. Cook the
onions, covered, over low to low-moderate heat for 20-30 minutes. Stir
occasionally. The onions should be translucent, lightly golden and most
of the liquid will have evaporated.

Add the peas and the canned tomatoes, including the tomato liquid.
Bring to a boil. Cover the pan and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
The peas should be tender and the sauce should have thickened.
