About Black eye peas
Black-eyed peas are a type of legume commonly associated with Southern and African-American cuisine, as well as West African and Mediterranean dishes. Recognizable by their creamy white hue and distinctive black spot, these versatile beans are not only flavorful but also packed with nutrition. They are a rich source of plant-based protein, making them an excellent option for vegetarians and vegans. High in fiber, black-eyed peas aid digestion and support heart health by helping to lower cholesterol levels. They also contain important vitamins and minerals, including folate, potassium, and iron, which are beneficial for energy production and maintaining a healthy nervous system. While naturally low in fat and calories, recipes that incorporate black-eyed peas may vary in healthiness depending on preparation—traditional dishes often include added fats or sodium. Regardless, black-eyed peas remain a nutrient-dense and affordable staple for a balanced diet.
