Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the black eyed peas, chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, pomegranate arils, onions, and fresh mint.

Step 2

Make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the pomegranate molasses (or balsamic reduction), lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and a good dash of salt and pepper.

Step 3

Pour the dressing over the black eyed pea salad. Mix well to combine. Finish with a sprinkle of feta cheese, if you like.
