Liz's Texas Caviar

Ok so here is my first posting.... This dip I first learned about at a work Potluck. I got the details about some of the main ingredients and just fine tuned it to my liking. People always seem to love it. It's amazingly easy to make and it's very healthy! It lasts awhile in the fridge and only gets better when left in the fridge for a few hours before serving. The best is you can make it your own so easy by changing little things to it! Enjoy!

Texas Caviar

Ingredients:

Grape Tomatoes
One Yellow Bell Pepper
One Red Bell Pepper
One Green Bell Pepper
Three Stocks of green Onion
½ Red Onion
¼ of jalapeƱos
One Can of Black Eye Peas
One Can of Black Beans
One Can of Yellow Sweet Corn
Three Pieces/Cloves of Garlic (or a tablespoon of minced garlic)
One whole cucumber
8oz Zesty Italian Dressing

Directions:

Chop all veggies finely
Drain all canned goods of juices
Combine all ingredients into a large bowl
Empty the whole bottle of Italian Dressing into the bowl
And salt and pepper to your taste
Stir together and let set in the fridge for at least an hour before serving

Serve with corn chips (I prefer black corn chips)

You can add cilantro or avocado…Downside of that is that you can refrigerate the ingredients if not finished and still good for a couple days… with the avocado maybe not… This makes a large bowl FYI
