Happy 2021 brian! I have lots of special things to eat...too many things! Fortunately, I can continue to celebrate all weekend too.
Like what? You inspired me with your mention of black-eyed peas. So I'm making that and collard greens tomorrow.
I also have a Manhattan strip roast, with fingerling potatoes and haricots verts. That would be fancy, but in the meantime I have most of a roast chicken (purchased pre-roasted at the store), and I want to make broth for the beans. So I was thinking of making quesadillas with the chicken, cheese, black beans, onions, poblano, corn and a sprinkling of pico de gallo.
