Seasons Tavern make a nice rendition. Corn, black beans, onions..
It’s good and light

I call this Texas Caviar I hope it’s the same. There are a bunch of variations of this recipe but this is the one I like best and it’s easy. I take this to the football tailgates in the Fall and it’s a crowd favorite.

20-24oz. Pace Picante
2 cans black beans drained
2 cans white Hominy drained
1 cup diced bell pepper
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped green onion
1/2 cup cilantro
1/4 cup chopped jalapeno pepper
4 diced garlic cloves
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp salt
2 Tbsp Cumin
2 Tbsp Pepper

1/2 cup of oil
1 cup of sugar
3/4 cup of cider vinegar
1 tablespoon of water
1/2 teaspoon of pepper

Bring to a boil – then cook 2 minutes and let cool

No flavors in the rest of the ingredients, rinse them well. Except for the canned items everything should be dieced or chopped into small pieces.

1/2 cup of jalapenos
1 can pinto beans
4 oz of pimientos
1 small onion
2 stalks of celery
1 cup green peppers
1 can white shoe peg corn
1 can black eyed peas.

Mix this all together and refrigerate.

we think that Fritos scoops are the best chip to use for dipping.

Lots of little variations!!

1 can black eyed peas
1 can pinto beans (with jalapenos, if possible)
1 can black beans
1 red onion, chopped
1 can chunky Rotel, drained (Rotel is chopped tomatoes and chilis)
2 med. fresh jalapenos, chopped, or 1 small can of chopped jalapenos
1/4 c. chopped cilantro
1 green bell pepper, chopped
6 tablespoons red wine vinegar
6 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 cup sugar

Combine in a sauce pan – red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar………bring to a boil, let stand. Drain all canned goods and mix together with all other ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the boiled sauce over and stir. Refrigerate a few hours, then serve with tostito scoops. The taste will become better/more intense as you let it marinate in the fridge.

Thanks for the response. I will make some tonight. If you don’t know what it is go to the deli and pick some up. County Market sells it for 5.99 a pound love it but think I can make it cheaper.

And better.

Made Walleye 1247’s last night can’t believe how good it is. County Market wishes theirs tasted this good.

I’ve had variations but have never heard it called that. I’ll have to try a few of these. They sound great.

I think it’s also called Texas caviar..it’s very addicting, one taste will have you eating the whole bowl

agreed, after reading this post I went through my recipie file and found a tried and true recipie. It’s simular to the above.

Just printed all three recipes. Which to try first…

2 cans tomato with green chilis
2 cans black beans (drained)
2 cans mexican corn (drained)
2 cloves garlic minced
1 bunch green onion
1 tbsp chili powder

Let sit overnight in fridge, garnish with cilatro, people always rave about it!

Is this a dip?

Yes it is but it turns into a meal after one bite.

I made Walley1274’s recipe for our annual Memorial Day party. I loved it, and so did everyone else. It got lots of compliments, and there were no leftovers!!!

1274’s recipe is very close to what we make, I do add a can of Young White Sweet Corn, call it Cowboy Crack, it is very addicting.
