Anne, here's a couple salad-type recipes that might just work...
"Swift Bean Salad"
2 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 tsp basil (or 2 tbsp fresh)
1/4 c chopped parsley
1 large tomato, chopped
2 tsp capers
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
2 cups canned chickpeas or cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (I am POSITIVE that black-eyed peas would be a good substitute in this recipe)
Saute garlic 1 minute. Add tomatos, basil, parsley and capers, cook until tomatos go pulpy (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in vinegar and beans. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate and serve cold. Serves 4, 2 points per serving.
*Note: i made this recipe with chickpeas tonight, and mixed 2 'servings' worth into a cup of brown rice and served warm and it was really really good!
"Orange and Cilantro Bean Salad"
1 1/2 cups canned black beans or black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1 navel orange, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cups cherry or plum tomatos, in large chunks
2 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
4 green olives, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
juice of one lime (1 tbsp? give or take)
1 tsp dijon mustard
Mix beans through olives in a bowl. Whisk together the oil, lime juice and mustard. Pour the dressing over the bean mixture and toss. Refrigerate and serve cold. Serves 4, i didn't work out the points, but the recipe says 167 calories and 4.6g fat per serving. (You could decrease the oil i'm sure).
*Note: I haven't tried this one yet!
