How to Make Black Eyed Pea Soup
Because this black eyed peas and cabbage soup lets the slow cooker do most of the work, you can spend New Year's Eve actually relaxing and enjoying the day's festivities.
- First, brown the lean ground beef in a large skillet (or large soup pot / dutch oven to make this soup entirely on the stovetop) over medium-high heat. Drain off any fat once done cooking.
- While the beef is cooking, chop the onion, bell pepper, and garlic; add to the hot skillet and continue cooking for a just a couple of minutes.
- Add the spices, and stir well.
- At this point you can either continue cooking the Cabbage and Black-Eyed Pea Soup in your dutch oven, or transfer the skillet ingredients to the slow cooker. Add the remaining ingredients, including the juices from the canned items, and stir well.
- On the stovetop, bring the soup to a boil and allow to simmer for at least one hour, up to 90 minutes. In the slow cooker, cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 8 hours.
Can I Prep This Soup in Advance?
Yes! You can prepare Cabbage and Black-Eyed Pea Soup a few days before your gathering. Just reheat and serve with fresh toppings!
Can I Make This Vegetarian?
I'm sure you can! I've only made the recipe as written, but I bet you can simply omit the ground beef and still have a flavorful soup.
Can I Freeze This Soup?
Technically, yes. You can freeze this easy cabbage soup recipe for up to 3 months. However, cabbage tends to change texture once frozen and thawed so I avoid freezing it when possible.
Tips for Making Black Eyed Pea Soup
- You're welcome to use ground pork or ground turkey instead of ground beef, if desired.
- For a spicier soup, use spicier canned tomatoes with green chiles.
- This soup is delicious alongside Rosemary Garlic Rolls or Cheddar Garlic Biscuits.
