Chef's Notes
Substitutions
Substitute other beans of choice for the black-eyed peas or black beans.
For the tomatoes, use any tomatoes you have on hand, especially if they’re coming from your garden!
Instead of cilantro, add basil, chives, or parsley.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
