There are a million cowboy caviar recipes out there. I mix and match to make my own according to what I like and/or have on hand. Here I used one can of black beans and one can of black-eyed peas, 1 can shoepeg corn, 1 green bell pepper, 1/4 red onion and Kraft Zesty Italian dressing. This is fast and easy because the only chopping you have to do is the bell pepper and onion. I served with organic blue tortilla chips. This has been a go-to appetizer for my whole family for many events. I ran out of time and my guests arrived before I could add the cilantro which was disappointing. It was still good, so if you aren’t a cilantro fan, just leave it out.
