Cowboy Caviar

I had this dip over Labor Day weekend and could not get enough! It has tons of fresh ingredients and just the right amount of spice.  We devoured it with tortilla chips but if you are looking for a healthier option, try serving it over chicken or fish.  It can also be a great substitute for dressing on a salad since.

Ingredients

  • 1 15.5 oz can corn, drained and rinsed
  • 1 15.5 oz can black eyed peas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 large avocado
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 2/3 cup cilantro
  • 2/3 cup green onion
  • 1/2 cup roma tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1 tsp. cumin

Directions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine corn and black eyed peas
  • Chop avocado into bite size pieces and drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning
  • Add in chopped avocado, cilantro, green onion, and tomatoes
  • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and vinegar
  • Mix in minced garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin to finish off vinaigrette
  • Drizzle red wine vinaigrette over caviar and stir to coat
