Happy New Year! I have a great New Year’s Day recipe for you today. A new twist on a traditional favorite, Hoppin’ John: Vegan Hoppin’ John Burgers or Sliders. Yum!

I kept them simple (mainly for the kids and they’re new anti-”spicy” attitudes), with very little seasoning. But feel free to spice them up with some chipotle mayo or hot sauce. Hoppin’ John is a great dish for New Year’s Day since it’s thought to bring good luck and prosperity: the black-eyed peas symbolize coins while the greens symbolize paper money.

These vegan sliders are a great way to get all the luck without having the same dish each year.

The Results

Very tasty! Definitely a nice change from regular Hoppin’ John. I’d go a little spicier if making it for just myself, but the blander version was loved by the kids. A definite repeat for future New Year’s Days.
