Fat-Free Black-Eyed Pea Stew

A fat-free stew is just what you need when you are getting over a cold, and this dish is also the perfect thing to make when you want to put something extra nutritious into your body. But bean stews, especially fat-free versions, have a tendency to just taste like bean if you don’t use the right herbs and spices. Black-eyed peas have a distinct flavor that I love, and if you love it, too, don’t rinse the beans too much, or you will lose that flavor.
