Black-Eyed Pea Cornbread Cakes with Jalapeno Sour Cream and Sauteed Collard Greens with Raisins

Having fun with some of the New Year superstitions that are popular in the southern states, we had a black-eyed pea and greens dish tonight.  Black-eyed peas are good luck and greens symbolize good fortune (looks like folded money).

Black-eyed Pea Cornbread Cakes With Jalapeño Sour Cream  Rating: 7

I used the Albers Cornbread (Rating: 9) recipe and subbed in whole wheat for their all purpose flour. olive oil for vegetable oil, demerara sugar for white sugar.  In the recipe for the cakes I subbed full fat Greek yogurt for the mayo and used grapeseed oil for frying them in.  I just used plain sour cream but Neal went with the spicier version.
