				Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay (the 13th)!
Today’s Friday Foodie Feature is Kale & Black Eye Pea Soup
Sunday I purchased a container of CutnClean Kale from Safeway to be used in my salads for the week.  However, after hearing the weather forecast for more snow I decided to use it to make a Crock Pot soup with Black Eye Peas.
		
		 
			
			
		
	
 
In the winter, my grandmother used to make the best homemade vegetable soups using ingredients she already had in the refrigerator, freezer or pantry.  So in keeping with tradition I used some leftover celery stalks, an onion, garlic, carrots and Bouillon cubes to make this soup.
Ingredients:
- Dry Black Eye Peas – 1/2 bag
- Kale – 1/2 package
- Celery – diced
- Carrots – diced
- Onion – diced
- Garlic – diced
- Bouillon Cubes (2)
- Water
- Olive Oil
- Black Pepper
- Smoked Turkey Necks (optional)
Mama Midget (yes that was her name), never used measuring cups or spoons so neither do I especially when using the Crock Pot.  I just throw in what I have or think is enough.
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Rinse and drain 1/2 bag of dry Black Eye peas  
Add 2 Bouillon Cubes to 3 cups of hot water 
Pour Olive Oil into Crock Pot just enough to cover bottom
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Chop onion, garlic, carrots and celery and add to Crock Pot
		
		 
			
			
		
	
 
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Add Kale and sprinkle with Black Pepper
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Pour in Bouillon Stock, adding more water to cover all ingredients if necessary
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Stir and if desired add Smoked Turkey Legs or Necks
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Cover and cook on low 8 hour, high 4 hours – depending on Crock Pot model.  Don’t forget to make some Skillet Corn Bread!
		
		 
			
			
		
	
Nothing beats walking into the house on a cold and snowy day to the smell and taste of “good ole homemade soup”!
I miss you Mama – RIP!
