Smoky Black-Eyed Peas and Greens

This year, my New Year's resolution is to write more blog posts, haha. So to kick off 2012, I present Smoky Black-Eyed Peas and Greens. I know it's a day late if you're planning to eat them for good luck, but this dish is tasty any time of the year. It's also super quick if you already have cooked black-eyed peas on hand. We like to use spinach, because it's convenient to grab a bag of frozen spinach, and it lacks the bitterness that often comes with collard greens. Other greens such as mustard greens, kale or collard greens would work too. Some of the seasonings are to taste, because hot sauces and liquid smokes can vary in strength and flavor. Just use your best culinary judgement ;-)
