Gluten-Free black-eyed pea cakes

'Meatless Monday' is totally doable with this recipe!  It is a healthy alternative to a hoe cake or hushpuppy, but just as yummy!

Ingredients
1 can black eyed peas, strained
2 tbsp corn meal
2 tbsp egg beaters
1 tsp sugar
1 tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Place strained black-eyed peas in a bowl.  Sprinkle corn meal, sugar, salt and pepper and stir well.  Add egg beaters and mix well.  The batter should be like lumpy cake batter.

Heat olive oil in a skillet and using a small scoop, scoop batter into 8 equal cakes.  Brown on each side, and serve.

And shame on me, I didn't take any after pictures because my children devoured them before I remembered! It is a good problem to have!
