Valerie's Review: 2012-02-14
The flavors of the recipe were outstanding. I've never eaten at Black Eyed Pea so I don't know if this recipe is anything like what they serve (or if it's even actually on their menu). The addition of the cheese is where the recipe lost points, however. I used a good melting cheese but it was still very stringy in the broth and made it hard to eat. It just didn't seem to "go" with the rest of the recipe.
