This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

Smoky bacon, spicy jalapeno, and fresh black-eyed peas simmer together in this garlicky Dutch oven recipe that's great for those colder nights.

9 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups water
6 cups fresh black-eyed peas, shelled
1 small jalapeno pepper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup ham, cooked and minced
1/4 cup green onions, chopped
Cook bacon in a Dutch oven until crisp; remove bacon with a slotted spoon, reserving 2 Tbsp. drippings in Dutch oven. Drain bacon and set aside.
Saute onion and garlic in reserved drippings until tender. Add water, peas, jalapeno and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour.
Add bacon, ham and green onions, and cook an additional 15 minutes.
