You can’t beat these slow cooker black eyed peas with turnip greens and sausage. these are made with frozen black eyed peas, frozen turnips and some smoked sausage. All are slow cooked with some broth seasonings all day long. My bunch loves a pot of beans. I like to serve it over rice. This is a perfect meal, and it feeds a lot of people.
I’ve been cooking different types of beans in the crockpot for years. It’s one of Allen‘s favorite types of food. He either wants a big ole steak or big pot of beans. I really felt like this one had all the things: meat, beans, greens. It’s really so delicious. The sausage adds such good flavor to this simple dish.
Equipment You’ll Need
For this recipe, you’re not going to need a whole lot of equipment. You’ll need just a large crockpot. Mine is 7 quarts. You’ll also need a kitchen knife to chop up your sausage and maybe a spoon or spatula for stirring.
Ingredients You’ll Need
Black Eyed Peas:
You’ll need 36 ounces of frozen black eyed peas. I like to use frozen peas because you don’t have to soak them overnight.
Turnip Greens:
You’ll need 12 ounces of chopped frozen turnip greens.
Smoked Sausage:
I used about 14 ounces of smoked sausage. You can use a pound or a little over. There’s no exact amount needed.
Chicken Broth:
You’ll need about 3 cups of chicken broth.
Seasonings:
As for seasonings are use salt, pepper, sugar, and garlic powder.
