What to do with leftover black eyed peas

I first featured a black eyed peas recipe way back in 2009. In Greek, we call them "mavromatakia" which is pretty close to the English description. Last year I visited New Orleans for the first time and I became familiar with the local cuisine and traditions. I also read about the southern tradition of eating black eyed peas, onions, peppers, celery, mint, olive oil, parsley, lemon
