The hearty salad is inspired by Hoppin’ John — a black eyed pea lover’s dream dish — which is believed to bring good luck to those who eat them on New Year’s Day.

Reviews
Is this served hot or cold?
Has become a staple that is requested we bring to parties and other functions. Can easily be made vegetarian but swapping the ham for Feta chunks.
Used ACV with honey…wow! This was SO good. Definitely going to be an annual thing for me!
