Substitutes for Meat? Cowpeas & Cheese, of course…
Baked Cowpeas and Cheese
1T butter
1T finely chopped onion
1T finely chopped sweet green pepper or celery
2 c cooked cowpeas
c grated cheese
Press the peas through a sieve to remove the skins and mix with the cheese. Cook the onion and pepper or celery in the butter or fat, being careful not the brown, and add them to the peas and cheese. Form into roll, place in a buttered dish and cook in a moderate oven until brown, basting occasionally with butter or other fat and water. Serve hot or cold as meat loaf.
