1 c. rice, cooked
1 can field peas or black eyed peas
2 slices bacon
1/4 c. onions
Dash of soy sauce (optional)
1/4 tsp. thyme
1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste

Cook rice. While rice cooks, fry the bacon. Pour off some of the grease. Add onions; saute with bacon. You may use some juice from the peas to cook onions. Add soy sauce, thyme, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add peas, then fold in rice. Serve on New Year's Day for good luck.
