     Yield: 1 Servings

          Black-eyed peas
          Hog jowls
          Rice

 Cook enough black-eyed peas with hog jowls until they are tender.
 Cook 1 cup of rice for every 2 or 3 hungry people.  Stir the rice
 and peas together and serve.

 Some folks add tomatoes, some add okra, but whatever else you add, if
 it has rice and peas, it then has to be called by it's White Trash
 name of Hoppin' John.

 Always eaten on New Year's Day, with the more you eat, the more good
 luck you will have in the coming year.  Kaye Kay states "That's common
 knowledge.  You can make it out of crowder, field or cow peas."
