Here's a delicious Smokey Black Eyed Pea and Sausage Soup recipe, made in a Dutch oven. The recipe is from the Homesick Texan 'blog:

Changing it up a bit, I make it in the Instant Pot and use spinach instead of kale. You could also use a ham bone or smoked ham hocks instead of smoked sausage, but my family loves the sausage version.
To make in a 6-Quart Instant Pot; no need to follow the website directions except for the browning steps (assembling the soup ingredients in the pot before the soup cooking step).

- Soak black-eyed peas 2 hours.
- Follow the browning steps in the original recipe using the Saute function in the Instant Pot.
- Cook in IP High 40 min + 10 min NPR (Natural Pressure Release)+ Manual Release.
- If using your own smoked sausage (I use Hot Italian Sausage smoked in the PBC) no need to brown it--just add after bacon has been browned. Heat the sausage through before adding the rest of the ingredients.
- If the recipe looks too spicy, back down to 1 chipotle. As mentioned, I use smoked hot Italian sausages, so using mild sausages will also reduce the heat level. Andouille sausages also taste wonderful in this recipe.
