Eyes Of Texas Casserole

Black-eyed peas have never had it so good. Ham, macaroni and crunchy corn chips turn them into a scrumptious casserole that would belong on any table in the Lone Star state. If you want to be really true to Texas, make a double batch.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Ham, bacon drippings, corn chips? How can you go wrong? I honestly wasn't expecting this recipe to be so scarf-it-down delicious - but it was (and then some). Everything about it was tasty, especially the corn chips. Go heavy on the corn chips - they add a nice saltiness and crunch.
