Cowboy Caviar

My family keeps asking me, "When is the Super Bowl?"  And I keep asking, "Why?  We don't even watch football.  Why do you want to watch the Super Bowl?"  And every single one of them has responded, "I don't care about the game.  I just like the FOOD!"

I haven't decided on the complete menu for the Super Bowl of Food, but Cowboy Caviar will be making an appearance.


Cowboy Caviar

1 (14 oz.) can black-eyed peas
1 (7 oz.) can Jolly Green Giant Mexicorn
1 ripe avocado, cubed
1 bunch cilantro, chopped fine
5 roma tomatoes, diced
1 bunch green onions, chopped
5 T. red wine vinegar
2 T. olive oil (can be omitted for a really low-cal recipe)
juice of one lime
Tabasco, salt and pepper to taste

Mix all together and refrigerate for a few hours to allow flavors to meld.  Serve with tortilla chips with a hint of lime.
