No, I’m not eating a bald eagle. I’m afraid it wouldn’t taste good, even if I wanted to eat one. Bald Eagle Black Field is another variation on Hoppin’ John. This one uses black beans and field peas; hence Black Field. The Bald Eagle part was inspired by the sighting of a bald eagle. I saw it land atop a telephone pole; and then it began to sing!                                  

3/4 cup dried black beans

3/4 cup dried field peas

1 1/4 cups raw, long-grain brown rice

1 cup chopped celery

1 1/2 oz grated mozzarella cheese

15 oz can diced tomatoes, well drained

1 cup chopped red onion

1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper

I cooked the rice the day before; and chopped everything but the bell pepper (which I hadn’t gotten yet).

Soak dried legumes overnight; drain; freeze for several hours. Put in 2-quart pot with chopped celery; with water to just cover. Cook beans firm-tender. Drain.

Stir in the mozzarella. Add tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and cooked rice. Mix well.

Yield: ~11 1/4 cups

ABOUT ME

I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.

I live in New Orleans; and  retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
