1 3/4 cups dried black-eyed peas
2 -5 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped, to taste
1/3 cup chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 ounces butter
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 (4 ounce) can chopped mild green chilies
1 tablespoon lime juice (not sweetened)
1/4 cup sour cream
1 slice well-cooked bacon, crumbled
1/4 cup chopped green onion
Tabasco sauce, to taste

1
Soak and rinse the peas then cook according to package directions (or use three 15-ounce cans of black-eyed peas); drain and set aside.
2
Whir together the jalapeno peppers, onion, and garlic in a food processor until smooth; set aside.
3
Over high heat in a double boiler over boiling water, combine the butter and cheese and stir together until the cheese is melted.
4
Lower heat to medium and add the green chilies, cooked peas, pepper mixture, and remaining ingredients and cook for another 5 minutes.
5
Pour into serving dish and serve immediately, hot, with tortilla chips.
6
Some folks add about a 1/2 cup of cooked corn to the dip, as well, but I prefer it without.
7
If you're diabetic and avoiding carbohydrates, you can substitute black soybeans for the peas and it'll taste pretty much the same but will be much lower in carbs (and higher in fiber).
