Black Eyed Pea Salad

I've made this a couple times and it is a great healthy, light, super easy salad. I served it alongside some grilled tuna melts.

I found the recipe here - http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/neelys/black-eyed-pea-salad-recipe/index.html

Ingredients

• 1/2 large tomato, diced
• 1/4 medium red onion, finely chopped
• 1/2 small red bell pepper, finely chopped (didn't have)
• 1/2 jalapeno, finely chopped (never use)
• 1 tablespoon chopped green onions
• 1 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves (or 1 tsp dried)
• 1/8 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar
• 1/8 cup canola oil
• 14 teaspoon sugar
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 (15-ounce) can black-eyed peas, drained

Directions

Combine the first 6 ingredients in a bowl.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the rice wine vinegar, canola oil, sugar, and salt and pepper.

Toss all together and let marinate for at up to 8 hours in the refrigerator before serving. (Again, I've made this and eaten it right away, still great!)
