Description
- Black-Eyed Peas are technically beans, closely related to the mung bean. While it is believed to have been first domesticated in Africa, the crop is now grown in Asia, North America, Europe and Australia. The plants are resistant to drought and enrich the soils in which they grow, making them a productive and critical food source for food-challenged and developing countries.
- The high protein content of these spotted legumes is a rich source of nutrients, especially when combined with whole grains and greens to make well-rounded meals.
