Tex-Mex Caviar

Don’t let the fancy name fool you. Texas caviar is pure down-home goodness.

Black-eyed peas get tossed with diced red and green bell peppers, red onion, a hit of jalapeño for kick, and fresh parsley to brighten it all up.

Warm it through and you’ve got a colorful, protein-packed dip that disappears fast at any cookout, tailgate, or potluck.

Scoop it up with tortilla chips or serve it as a side alongside grilled chicken or smoked brisket.

Pro Tips

• Add a splash of Italian dressing or red wine vinegar before heating for tangy depth.
• Serve it cold instead of warm during summer for a refreshing bean salad.
• Toss in a can of drained corn for extra sweetness and crunch that makes this even more scoopable.
