I have made this several times. I often add Andouille sausage or Polska Kielbasa to make this a main dish. It freezes well and is great year round!

I have made Hoppin' John pretty casually before, maybe using a recipe from Southern Living, sometimes just using the recipe on the bag of black-eyed peas. It's a dish that's hard to mess up - even when it's not great, it's still pretty good. But, Emeril's recipe is great! Everyone in my family (toddler included loved it, and my husband said it was the best he's ever had. Looking at the recipe, you might think it's too simple to be that special, but it's that good and that easy. What more could you ask for in a recipe?

I am very impressed how easy this dish was to create. My home smelled wonderful as it was cooking. I plan to do this again to have a great side dish for my curry chicken.

Having made Hoppin John for years, I decided to try a new recipe. This recipe was a huge hit with my family. Along with it I served cornbread, collard greens and cottage cheese with red and green peppers and sweet onions chopped in it. My family raved about all of it. I will definitely serve this whole New Years Day meal again. And besides being great, it was easy. Talk about bringing "good luck" for 2005. It already has.

I made double of this recipe and Paula Deans squash casserole to take to the 'southern favorites' potluck dinner at my daughters school. They were a success! The children as well as the parents and teachers really enjoyed both recipes and I will definitely be making them again soon and often.
