Flang a bunch of black-eyed peas together with some onions, a touch of garlic, a hambone, and (here's where my Texan ancestors come in) a couple of dried red chiles......

Do a load of cornbread in a cast iron skillet in the oven (Mexican cornbread, ie with peppers and whole corn is acceptable; sugar is *not*), and pile those peas on the cornbread.

That's the Southern side of the family.....from spouse's side we get breakfast:

take the last of the homemade Polish sausage from Christmas, should you manage to have hid some, chop into tiny bits, and scramble with eggs.
