Black Eyed Peas With Hamburger (Pinquito Style) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (1 lb) package dried black-eyed peas, soaked overnight and cooked, with cooking liquid
1 lb ground beef
1 bell pepper, diced to 1/4 inch
1 onion, diced to 1/4 inch
1/2 cup celery, diced to 1/4 inch
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can fat free low-sodium beef broth
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper

Preparation

Set cooked black eyed peas in their cooking liquid aside.
Sautee Beef, Bell Pepper, Onion, and Celery until veggis are crisp-tender.
***Note, I prefer my veggis very well done and very tender, so I start the veggis and add the beef when they are about half-way done.
Add remaining ingredients and simmer for about 15 minutes. Adjust the salt and pepper to your taste.
*****Note: Your cooked Black Eyed Peas should have about 1-2 Cups of the cooking liquid left. Add more Beef Broth or Water if desired.
