Black eyed peas and collard greens



 tasty! This is also good in a wrap with a bit of hummus!!!

 1 vegetable bullion cube
 liquid smoke
 Texas Pete
 garlic powder
 grated onion
 salt and pepper
 honey Dijon mustard
a bunch of collards
 frozen bag of black eyed peas(16 ounce bag)
 Optional: barbecue sauce or ham
 cooked rice if desired

 Prepare the collards--removing large stems and chopping the greens. Place greens and black eyed peas in large kettle and cover with water. Add a vegetable bullion cube, a bit of liquid smoke (about 1/2 teaspoon), some dashes of Texas Pete, sprinkling of garlic powder, some grated onion and salt and pepper. (you can also add some ham if desired). Boil for 3 minutes and then reduce heat and simmer 40-45 minutes until all is tender. Drain and stir in honey Dijon mustard to taste. Serve over rice. This is also good with barbecue sauce drizzled over it.
