Turkey and Black-Eyed Peas Soup #SundaySupper

Turkey and Black-Eyed Peas Soup Bowl

Turkey and Black-eyed Peas soup table

Turkey and Black-Eyed Peas Soup with chunks of potatoes and kale. A hearty, delicious heart-healthy soup! One bowl is not enough!
I have a secret that makes this heart-healthy soup, souper special.
I didn’t use turkey breast or thighs. I said beat it to turkey drums,too.
You guessed it. I made this soup with turkey wings.
Wing meat has the taste of white meat and the moist, tender texture of dark meat. Turkey wings also make full-bodied stock and can be quite economical too.
Black-Eyed Peas, also known as cowpeas, are actually beans. Like all beans, dried cowpeas swell when cooked. In some cultures, people eat these beans on New Year’s Day hoping to bring wealth and prosperity to the household.
I eat them because they’re delicious and good for you.
Black Eyed-peas are loaded with vitamins and nutrients.
These beans are a great source of Potassium, Dietary fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Calcium, and Magnesium.
Kale is no slouch either. 😉
This leafy green is high in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Calcium and Iron.
Thanks to  Ethel of Eating in Instead and Lori of Foxes Love Lemons for hosting this event!

Chocolate Chip Bagels #BreadBakers

Chocolate Chip Bagel breakfast (550x550)
Chocolate Chip Bagels

When my granddaughter was little, we went weekly to the Farmer’s Market. She would run past the candy stand, past the cakes and cookies too. She bee-lined for the bagel stand. A warm, fresh chocolate chip bagel called her attention. A bagel oozing melting chocolate.
Then we would go to the flower stand to select one fresh cut carnation. The woman carefully wrapped the long stemmed flower in a sheet of tissue paper and presented it to my granddaughter.
A sniff and a nod followed. She munched happily on her bagel as she showed each vendor along the way her floral pick.
When my daughter was little, I worked in a bagel bakery. We made water bagels and egg bagels. Flavors ran from plain to everything with seasonal fruit appearing from time to time. By the way, we never made chocolate chip bagels.
We proofed them in a walk-in box, used a trough for the water bath and baked them in a 500 degree oven with rotating shelves.
I never made bagels at home before. My kitchen is far from factory equipped. 🙂 But I have made soft pretzels in the same fashion. You can find that recipe here.
This recipe is a copulation of several I found on the internet.
I pressed the chips into the dough, then stretched dough over them. I hoped this would keep the chips from melting during their hot water bath. I sacrificed some of the smooth texture, but it worked.

I brushed the bagels with egg wash to give them a shiny coat.

I like these plain, with peanut butter, cream cheese or butter!
