Forgot to add a rating before, so copying my comment here:

Made this today when looking for how to use cooked collards. This soup came out AMAZING!
I only had the collards so the beans and tomatoes came from a can, plus I had only a few cups of stock and added 2 cups of water to replace more stock. I had no ham or jalapeño and it was still delicious!
Excited to make this again when I have all the ingredients as I want to have greens more than 3 times a year. Adding this to my soup staples!

Absolutely delicious! I happened to have all the ingredients on hand and made it. Definitely a keeper and a great January recipe to use leftover peas, ham, and collards from New Year’s.
I could eat a bait of it!

This look great; a saver for sure! I had leftover stock from cooking county style ribs in the crockpot so I put the cooking bag in the frig to separate the fat then drained the stock into the peas an greens. I was really happy with the results!

Jean,
Soup is one of my favorite things to make in big batches and freeze. As long as you have a microwave, you’ve got an instant meal. 🙂

Jackie I could not live without soup. I like the last sentence…serve with cornbread! I have made a ton of soup of late and eaten every bite and even take it to work with me. This soup sounds wonderful and a good way to get rid of leftovers!

In reply to Maureen | Orgasmic Chef. Maureen, I'm not sure what earth she could have done to blackeye peas to make them taste so bad. They really have a mild flavor. Maybe she cooked them too long or scorched them. It's unfortunate that you're introduction was less than desirable.

This does not look like my ex mother-in-law’s black eyed peas! I’d never eaten any before moving South and hers were horrid. She accused me of trying to destroy the family’s luck because I wouldn’t eat more than a bite. 🙂
