healthy chip dip in a yellow bowl

Cowboy Caviar

Colorful, flavor-packed, healthy chip dip.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 15 oz. can black-eye peas drained and rinsed
  • 2 avocados cut into small pieces
  • 1 can shoepeg corn drained
  • 2 tomatoes chopped into small pieces
  • 2 bunches green onions chopped
  • 1 bunch cilantro chopped
Dressing
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 3-4 minced garlic cloves
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the black-eyed peas, chopped tomato, chopped avocado, shoepeg corn, green olives and cilantro.
  2. In a separate bowl, make the dressing by combining the olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, cumin, pepper and salt. Whisk together well and pour it over the top of the veggies.
  3. Gently stir the veggies and the dressing together until everything is covered with dressing.
  4. You can eat this right away (if you just can't wait... like me) or cover it and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes of so. Serve with tortilla chips or corn chips.
