This is an easy down home country style ! I made this the easy way in the crock pot, it came out amazing! Sometimes I just  gotta  have that homemade food I was raised On. It's probably not the most healthiest food but every once in awhile ya just gotta have a little taste of home. Served this with sweet potatoes spinach and homemade cornbread brought me back so many memories, love my mama's cooking!!.

bag (16 oz) dried black-eyed peas
2
cups chopped cooked ham or salt pork,or ham hocks
