Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Black-Eyed Peas: If using dried black-eyed peas, rinse and soak overnight, then boil in fresh water until tender but firm, about 1 hour. Drain and allow to cool. If using canned black-eyed peas, rinse and drain thoroughly.

‍

Step 2

Combine the Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the cooked and cooled black-eyed peas, diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, avocado, jalapeño, parsley, and cilantro.

‍

Step 3

Whisk Together the Dressing: In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Whisk until well blended.

‍

Step 4

Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure all the ingredients are evenly coated.

‍

Step 5

Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
