Athen'S Marinated Black-Eyed Peas - cooking recipe

Ingredients

30 ounces black-eyed peas (2 15 oz. cans)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 garlic clove, chopped
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Drain the peas and rinse.
Combine onion, bell pepper and peas.
Mix remaining ingredients together and pour over pea mixture.
Cover and refrigerate for a time to blend.
I have never timed how long it takes, so I'm guessing on the time.
Note: I did not use the clove; I used 1 teaspoon from a jar of minced cloves.
I also have added 1/4 cup sliced black olives.
