Step by step

1. Rinse the soaked black-eyed peas then place them in a large pot and cover with water. Boil until soft but not mushy. Drain, season with salt and pepper, and set aside to cool.
2. In the meantime, finely chop all the vegetables and greens into small cubes and place in a bowl.
3. When black-eyed peas have cooled, move them to the same bowl with the remaining salad ingredients.
4. Place dressing ingredients in a small blender and pulse until creamy.
5. Pour the parsley dressing over the salad and mix. Taste to adjust seasoning, then transfer to serving plate, or cover and place it in the fridge for a few hours.
