Texas Caviar

If you are looking for a new and different dip to serve at your next party, this is the recipe for you. The yummy mixture of blackeyed peas, tomatoes, avacados, and Mexican flavors is great served with Fritos or other Tortilla Chips. Bring in the next New Year with a lucky serving of Texas Caviar!

INGREDIENTS:
2 Cans of Black Eyed Peas
1 Large or 2 Small Avacados, diced
1/4 C. Wishbone Italian Dressing
1 bunch of Cilantro, chopped
1 small Red Onion, diced
1/2 C. Tomatoes, diced (yellow cherry tomatoes taste great and make for a pretty presentation but any red tomato will work just as well or use a mixture of both)
1 - 3 Jalapeno Peppers, chopped (adjust the amount used based on your heat preference)
Juice of 1 large Lime
Garlic Powder to taste
Salt to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Drain the peas, then mix everything together in a large bowl. Serve with the chips of our choice for dipping.

This dip is good cold, but can also be served warm. If you choose the warm version, mix everything together except the avacados and heat the the microwave until warm then mix in the avacados and serve.
