Servings: persons

1 cup black eyed peas cooked, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon tahini see note
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 green onion greens only, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
2 whole wheat buns optional
2 cups kale leaves chopped
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Place the black-eyed peas, tahini, sesame seeds, and green onions in a small food processor. Pulse until the ingredients are blended and you have a thick paste that can be formed into patties. The peas should still be chunky.
3
Transfer the black-eyed pea mixture to a small bowl and stir in the ground ginger, garlic powder, and soy sauce.
4
Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
5
Divide the pea mixture in half. Form each half into a patty about 3 inches in diameter. Place the patties on the baking sheet, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and use a spatula to gently flip the patties. Do this carefully, as they will break easily at this stage. Bake 10 more minutes.
6
To prepare the kale, heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kale and cook about 1 minute. Add the water and stir until the kale begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, and stir in the honey and soy sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and remove the pan from the heat.
7
To serve, place the patties on a bun (if using), or on a plate, and top each with half of the kale.
