Our son in law made this and we loved it. Now I make it all the time too. Quick, easy and really delicious!
It is so easy and yet so very good. Don’t forget the lime it adds a lot of zest. I tried it this last time and used diced tomatoes, but really I think I like it best the original was. So good served with tortilla chips.
How is this different from Cowboy Caviar?
Good question. I’ll have to check out how you make Cowboy Caviar because I’ve never had any. Hold on just a minute…
Okay, I looked it up and there are no black eyed peas, no diced tomatoes drained, regular onion instead of red, no pickled jalapenos, no garlic salt, and no Italian dressing. But they are very similar.
I use just black beans, avocados, cumin, grilled limes, and red onion I’ll have to try it the other way too, sounds very good!
