Black Eyed Pea Sweet Potato Cornbread Pot Pie

Ingredient Extravaganza!

Here’s what you’ll need to create this masterpiece:

  • 1 cup black-eyed peas, cooked
  • 1 medium sweet potato, diced
  • 1 cup corn, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons thyme
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 prepared cornbread mix
  • 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Ready, Set, Cook!

Now, let’s get this culinary party started! Follow these simple steps:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), because we want everything to be piping hot!
  2. In a large skillet, drizzle the olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and translucent – about 5 minutes. Your kitchen will smell divine, I promise!
  3. Add the diced sweet potato to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, just until it starts to soften.
  4. Stir in the black-eyed peas, corn, vegetable broth, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Let it all simmer together for about 10 minutes. Go ahead, take a sniff; it’s heavenly!
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine your cornbread mix with the milk and stir until just combined. No need to overdo it – we like it a little chunky!
  6. Pour your delicious filling into a greased pie pan or baking dish. Spread it out evenly and then dollop the cornbread batter on top. Get creative with it; swirls are encouraged!
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cornbread topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling with joy.
  8. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if you’re feeling fancy!

Now, dig in and embrace the cozy flavors! It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience. Who knew food could be this warm and inviting? Enjoy every cheesy, savory bite of your Black Eyed Pea Sweet Potato Cornbread Pot Pie!
