Cowboy Caviar

This salsa is fresh and flavorful!  The veggies combined with the beans and corn make for a hearty and healthy side dish, or snack.  The dressing adds a nice tang! You're going to love it!  I love to use my food chopper so the tomatoes and peppers are diced perfectly.




3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 - 3 avocados, diced
1 bell pepper (orange, yellow, red or green - or any combination of them)
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced into very small pieces
1/3 bunch cilantro
1/3 cup red onion, diced
15 oz black beans, rinsed and drained
15 oz black eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups frozen corn (toss in frozen, they usually thaw by the time we're ready to enjoy)

Dressing:
1/3 cup avocado oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Combine all salsa ingredients into a large bowl, and toss together until well combined.
In a separate bowl whisk together the dressing ingredients.  Pour dressing on salsa and mix until the dressing coats the salsa.  Serve with tortilla chips.
