Black-Eyed Pea and Cabbage Stew -Kick off the new year with hearty and healthy vegan black-eyed pea and cabbage stew loaded with good-for-you ingredients!

Black-eyed peas and cabbage have been required to be eaten on New Year’s Day around here for as long as I can remember.

This traditional combination of beans and greens is said to welcome health and wealth into your life for the coming year.

What I like about this recipe is that it’s very easy to put together and is ready to serve in about an hour and a half, with most of that time used for simmering away on the stove and making the kitchen smell amazing!

It’s been seven years since I first served this hearty stew and it remains my go-to meal on New Year’s Day!
