Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup corn, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup diced bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 avocados, diced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients by pulling together all the fresh produce and canned goods. Rinse the black beans and black-eyed peas well under cold water.
  2. Combine the base ingredients in a large bowl, including the black beans, black-eyed peas, corn, diced tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and diced avocados.
  3. Whisk the dressing in a separate bowl by combining olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper until well mixed.
  4. Dress the salad by pouring the dressing over the bean mixture and gently toss everything together, being careful not to mash the avocados.
  5. Chill or serve the dish immediately. For best flavor, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

Cowboy Caviar is perfect served with tortilla chips for dipping or as a topping for grilled meats. Great for parties and gatherings.
