Texas caviar is simply a black eyed pea salad. I ate it for the very first time yesterday and liked it, but y'all know me - I can't leave a recipe alone.
It just needed more...... Here is what I did:
3 cans black eyed peas, rinsed
1 can sweet corn
1 small jicama, diced to be the same size as the peas and corn
1 diced red pepper, 1 diced yellow pepper
4 scallions sliced thinly
1 small purple onion, diced and rinsed under cold water
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
2 poblano peppers that have been roasted, peeled, seeded and diced
Juice of 2 - 3 limes
1/2 cup really good olive oil
1 teaspoon each salt and pepper
Mix all ingredients together and taste for seasoning.
Also, be sure to dice up an avocado and add it as a creamy and cool surprise in this salad. I promise you that no one will be disappointed.
From the heart of my purple kitchen to you,
Enjoy!!!
